Local Business Marketing Intelligence in Lyons
Lyons is one of Sunderland's local areas, within postcode district DH5, bordering High Moorsley, Low Moorsley and Hetton Downs. Sunderland's twin monastery at Wearmouth-Jarrow, founded in 674 AD, produced the Venerable Bede, one of the most important scholars of the early medieval world. By 1815 the town had become the world's leading wooden shipbuilding port, launching around 600 ships a year from 31 separate yards along the Wear.
Sunderland BID has put over £6 million into the city centre since 2014, later expanding to cover the Sheepfolds area and launching a separate Seafront BID for the coastal business district. According to national statistics (ONS, March 2026), there were 6,085 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
Gross disposable household income per head in Sunderland was £19,252 in 2024 (ONS). That's the kind of local economy marketing intelligence is designed to work in.
