Norwich Local Business Marketing Intelligence
Norwich earned its old reputation as a city with a pub for every day of the year and a church for every week, and of the 57 medieval churches once packed inside its walls, 31 still stand today — more surviving medieval churches than anywhere else north of the Alps. That same dense, ancient street pattern now holds the Norwich Lanes, a knot of cobbled streets such as Elm Hill lined with well over 300 independent shops.
Norwich's own Business Improvement District, run for local businesses by local businesses since 2012, now represents more than 700 businesses across the city — one of the largest concentrations of independent and small business representation of any UK city BID. ONS recorded 5,120 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
12.2% of working-age people in Norwich were economically inactive in 2023 (ONS). A labour market like that shapes who's around to become your customer - marketing intelligence helps you reach them.
