Please Note:
  • The above list of business categories cannot, of course, be completely comprehensive – there are some very unusual, even unique businesses!
  • The individual buyer figures add to more than the total registered due to multiple listings by some prospective buyers.
  • The figures shown are minimums for each category because many prospective buyers are not specific. They are looking for ideas or will consider propositions beyond the categories they list. For many people the business category is not their prime consideration – they may, for example, be more concerned about the level of profit, opportunity for expansion or other factors.
