Where the figures come from

Companies House publishes every live company each month, free, under the Open Government Licence. We keep the ones whose registered office has a BS postcode and that were set up in the last three months. A registered office isn’t always where a business trades, and many small companies are registered at someone’s home, so we show the street only: never the house number, full postcode or anyone’s name.
