Marketing Intelligence for Local Businesses in Southampton
Southampton called itself the 'Gateway to the World' after becoming Britain's premier passenger port by 1907, and it was from Berth 44 here that the Titanic departed on 10 April 1912 with more than 700 local crew aboard; over 500 of them died, and more than 500 Southampton households lost a family member.
GO! Southampton, the city centre's Business Improvement District, represents over 630 levy-paying businesses and has run since a successful ballot in November 2016. ONS recorded 7,285 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
The employment rate in Southampton was 75.9% in 2023 (ONS). That's the local workforce and customer base marketing intelligence is competing to reach.
