The Herefordshire local authority area had 12,125 local business units in 2026. The sectors below are more common here than across England, with what each one’s website should show:

• Farms and agricultural businesses (2,255 sites): where to buy their products and what they grow or raise.
• Manufacturers and engineering workshops (80 sites): industries they serve and a form for drawings and quotes.
• Cleaning, landscaping and building services (315 sites): photos of completed work and insurance details.
• Hotels, B&Bs and holiday lets (140 sites): the rooms with real photos and rates by season.

The local count includes 75 estate agencies, 90 takeaways and food stands and 180 landscape service firms. Small firms dominate: 86.6% have fewer than ten staff, and 19.1% are sole proprietors.
