Folkestone, all trades 25 359

A trade needs at least 30 new companies in Folkestone over twelve months before it gets a page of its own, so the 34 trades below that line are listed without a link. A company carrying more than one SIC code can appear in more than one trade, so the rows add up to more than the number of companies behind them.

Twelve months

March was the busiest month.

New companies in Folkestone, by month

Sep 2025 – Aug 2026 · 359 in total

Previous months August 2026

Small numbers move about. At this volume a quiet month and a busy month in the same year is normal, so read the twelve-month total before you read any single month.

2015 to 2026

How far back Folkestone goes.

Companies registered to a Folkestone address by year of incorporation, across all 39 trades, and this year measured against the same run of months last year.

New companies in Folkestone, by year

2015 to 2026 · 2026 counts January to August only

Complete years 2026, part year
January to August 2026 260 New companies in Folkestone so far this year
Same months, 2025 213 Up 22% year on year
2025, the last full year 312 Against 92 in 2015

Older years undercount. The register only holds companies that still exist. Anything formed in an earlier year and since dissolved has dropped off it, so the further back the chart goes the more it undercounts. That alone makes every trade look like it is growing. Some of the rise here is real growth and some of it is simply that recent companies have had less time to close. The long view works through it in full.
