Canterbury's Business Improvement District has been renewed by ballot three times (2014, 2019 and 2024) and now collects around £490,000 a year in levy from more than 650 businesses within the city walls. The most recent ONS snapshot (March 2026) recorded 5,835 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
