Marketing Intelligence for Friendly Local Businesses
Friendly is a locality in Calderdale, in the Yorkshire and The Humber region. It falls within the HX6 postcode district. Neighbouring places include Beechwood, Ripponden Wood and Mill Bank. Halifax's Piece Hall opened in 1779 as a cloth trading hall where hand loom weavers sold woollen fabric during a strict two-hour Saturday market, and it is the only such cloth hall to survive intact anywhere.
The ONS's own figures recorded 8,085 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area. Halifax BID, trading as Discover Halifax, has run since 2017 and was renewed by local businesses to secure £2.2 million of further investment for the town centre.
Calderdale's population changed by 1.5% over the five years to 2024 (ONS). Numbers like that directly affect how many people marketing intelligence can realistically reach for you here.
