Plymouth, all trades 98 1,324

A trade needs at least 30 new companies in Plymouth over twelve months before it gets a page of its own, so the 24 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 registered to a Plymouth address each month, across all 39 trades. The busiest month was March on 153. The quietest was December on 74.

New companies in Plymouth, by month

Sep 2025 – Aug 2026 · 1,324 in total

Previous months August 2026

Registrations dip over Christmas and pick up in the new year almost everywhere, so compare a month with the same month a year earlier rather than with the one before it.

2015 to 2026

How far back Plymouth goes.

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

New companies in Plymouth, by year

2015 to 2026 · 2026 counts January to August only

Complete years 2026, part year
January to August 2026 911 New companies in Plymouth so far this year
Same months, 2025 790 Up 15% year on year
2025, the last full year 1,203 Against 299 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.
