Local Business Marketing Intelligence in Hailes
Located in City of Edinburgh (Scotland), Hailes takes in the EH13 postcode district and neighbours Dreghorn, Bonaly and Colinton Mains. Edinburgh's Royal Mile runs along the 'crag and tail' left by a glacier scraping past the extinct volcano that Edinburgh Castle now sits on, linking the Castle to Holyroodhouse along five joined streets first named as a single route by a writer in 1901. Squeezed for space within the old town walls, builders had nowhere to go but up, lining the Mile with tenements ten storeys and higher centuries before the word 'skyscraper' existed anywhere else.
Essential Edinburgh runs the city centre's Business Improvement District, covering New Town from Charlotte Square to the St James Centre, while the separately run Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce brings together more than 800 businesses citywide. According to ONS's most recent business figures, there were 18,635 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
Gross disposable household income per head in City of Edinburgh was £31,043 in 2024 (ONS). Figures like that describe real customers with real budgets - marketing intelligence helps you reach them.
