Local Business Marketing Intelligence in Aston

Aston is a locality in Birmingham, in the West Midlands region. It falls within the B6 postcode district. Neighbouring places include Aston New Town, Birchfield and New Town Row. Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter has made fine metalwork for over 250 years and once produced 40% of all jewellery made in the UK; its Assay Office, founded by Act of Parliament in 1773, is still the largest in Europe. St Paul's Square, the city's only remaining Georgian square, sits at the heart of a district where the first FA Cup and the whistles used on the Titanic were both made.

ONS's recorded figures for March 2026 counted 38,605 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses here. Colmore BID, covering the city's business quarter, is now in its fourth five-year term since April 2024, funded by a levy on the district's businesses, and works alongside the separately run Central BID covering Birmingham's retail and hospitality streets.

11.9% of businesses in Birmingham closed ('died') in 2024 (ONS business demography). In a market changing that fast, marketing intelligence is what keeps a business visible instead of lost in the churn.
