Tickton: the place behind the numbers

Who is in business in East Riding of Yorkshire

UK Business Counts lists 16,160 business sites in the East Riding of Yorkshire local authority area in 2026. Compared with England as a whole, these sectors have a larger presence:

• Farms and agricultural businesses (1,730 sites): what they grow or raise and where to buy their products.
• Hotels, B&Bs and holiday lets (210 sites): how to get there and rates by season.
• Haulage and delivery firms (390 sites): the routes and regions they cover and safety and licence details.
• Car dealers and motor trade businesses (540 sites): directions and opening hours and service and repair hours.
• Professional firms such as accountants, solicitors and engineers (480 sites): the team with qualifications and how a first consultation works.

The local count includes 75 childcare day centres, 20 driving schools and 290 domestic building firms. Most are small: 84.7% employ fewer than ten people. In every one of these sectors, the website that wins is the one that answers questions before the customer has to ask.
