We do want to support local businesses, now more than ever. If you have the chance to shop locally please try your best.
Here are some interesting statistics about Doncaster Businesses:
How many registered businesses are there in Doncaster?
There are several types of businesses you can run but the main two are registered and sole traders. Both have their own benefits, but getting records of sole traders (i.e. your local window cleaner) is much more difficult and these start and disappear a lot quicker.
In terms of registered businesses it’s very easy, they have to publish information yearly at companies’ houses. A lot of this data is publicly available.
As of writing this there are 19,114 limited businesses in Doncaster ranging from small businesses to some of the UK largest.
