Local Business Marketing Intelligence in Bridgend
Bridgend received a royal market charter from Henry VIII in 1516, and during the Second World War it was home to one of the largest munitions factories of its kind in the UK.
Bridgend's town centre Business Improvement District, established in 2016 with 348 levy-paying businesses, was voted out by those same businesses in a 2019 renewal ballot (39 votes in favour to 42 against) and wound up after a single three-year term. ONS recorded 3,825 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
Workers in Bridgend produced £37.34 of economic value for every hour worked in 2023 (ONS). That's the kind of local economy marketing intelligence is designed to work in.
