Marketing Intelligence for Local Businesses in Half Mile

Located in Leeds (Yorkshire and The Humber), Half Mile takes in the LS13 postcode district and neighbours Gamble Hill, Sandford and Hough End. Leeds Kirkgate Market, one of Europe's largest covered markets, began as an open-air market in 1822 and is the birthplace of Marks & Spencer, founded here in 1884 when Michael Marks set up a 'penny bazaar' stall with the slogan 'Don't ask the price, it's a penny'. Today the Victorian market hall still holds over 800 stalls and draws more than 100,000 visitors a week.

LeedsBID is the largest multi-sector Business Improvement District outside London, representing close to 800 city centre businesses across every sector. ONS's snapshot from March 2026 counted 29,830 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses here.

92.5% of new businesses in Leeds were still trading one year on, as of 2023 (ONS). Numbers like that make marketing intelligence worth having, not optional - a static approach loses ground fast in a market this active.
