Marketing Intelligence: Built for Local Businesses in Torquay and Paignton
Torquay is nicknamed the English Riviera for its mild climate, while nearby Paignton is famous for a giant pudding that caused a riot in 1859 and for a 1907 cinema said to have inspired settings in Agatha Christie's novels.
English Riviera BID, active since 2016 and based on Vaughan Parade in Torquay, works to promote and support local businesses across Torquay and Paignton. ONS recorded 4,095 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
9.6% of businesses in Torbay were newly started ('born') in 2024 (ONS business demography). That kind of churn is precisely why marketing intelligence matters - standing still isn't an option when the market around you isn't.
