Whilst researching the net I’ve come across some interesting starchiest on small business in the UK. These stats taken from the federation of small business the website is www.fbs.org.uk . Here are a few I found the most interesting.
• There are 4.8 million small businesses in the UK (up from 4 million in 2003)
• 3 million businesses are sole proprietors
• 5 per cent employ less than 5 people
• Over 500,000 people start up their own business every year
• 33 per cent of all UK enterprises are in London and the South-East
• Small and medium-sized firms employ more than 59.4 per cent of the private sector workforce
