Longton Local Business Marketing Intelligence

Longton is one of Stafford's local areas, within postcode district ST3, bordering Meir, Rough Close and Hulme. The Ancient High House, built in 1595, is the largest timber framed town house in England, and Stafford was founded in 913 as a defensive burh by AEthelflaed, Lady of the Mercians.

ONS counted 5,520 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses here. Stafford has no town-specific Chamber of Commerce, so local businesses are more commonly represented through the Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce and Industry, active since 1949.

69.7% of new businesses in Stafford were still trading two years on, as of 2022 (ONS). With that much movement in the local business population, marketing intelligence is exactly what helps a business hold its ground.
