In brief
Price for a one-off export of a whole industry. The records in our dataset are not yet assigned to industries; the column therefore shows the market size according to the ONS, not the number of records delivered. The quote states that number. Prices shown are the full price – nothing is added. Selections by nation, postcode area or your own filters are quoted on request.

Market size: ONS, UK business: activity, size and location 2026 (businesses registered for VAT and/or PAYE in March 2026, by UK SIC 2007). Sources in detail on each industry page.
We can only quote for a specific selection. We need these details because they determine how many records are delivered and how much work the compilation takes:
| Detail | Example | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Industry | one of the 21 industries or UK SIC codes | Industries differ greatly in size. The official figure per industry shows the size of the market, not the size of an export. |
| Region | the whole UK, individual nations, regions or postcode areas | The number of businesses depends heavily on the region, see businesses by nation and region. |
| Required fields | only records with a complete address, a website or an email address | Required fields narrow the selection to the records you can actually use for your purpose. |
| Columns and format | all columns as CSV, or selected columns as XLSX | The standard is a CSV with all columns; changes are agreed in the quote. |
| Country | the UK or an EU country | There is no ready-made catalogue for other countries; we check what can be delivered for each request. |
| Delivery frequency | one-off or regular | The standard is a one-off delivery; regular deliveries are agreed separately. |
Two offers for company addresses can only be compared if they describe the same selection: the same industry, region and required fields. Then divide the price by the number of records you can really use for your purpose, for a postal mailing by the number of records with a complete address. A worked example is in the guide Buying UK business data: what to check.
Also check whether a price is one-off, monthly or yearly, whether VAT is added and whether you buy the data or only rent them for individual mailings. The company databases compared page compares the types of providers and sources.
Name the industry, region, the fields every record must contain and the intended use. We usually reply within one working day. Prefer email? info@contactdatabase.co.uk.
Depending on the industry, £199 to £379; the prices per industry are in the table on this page and on every industry page. For a selection by nation, postcode area or your own filters (for example only records with a website), you receive a quote. The database status page shows how far the dataset has got.
Country, industries, region and filters, the columns and format, the number of records, the date of the data, the price and the expected delivery date. A contract is only concluded when you accept the quote.
What the quote confirms. It states the number of records for your selection and the date of the data. The dataset holds 2.676.396 records (as at 4 November 2026); they are not yet assigned to industries, so only the quote states the number per industry.
No. You pay once for an export. Regular deliveries are possible if you want them; we then agree frequency and price separately.
Yes. Prices at Contact Database are the full price; nothing is added to the amount in the quote.
Yes. The sample file shows all columns with entirely fictitious businesses and can be downloaded free of charge. It shows the structure, not the quality of a real export.
The official number of businesses per industry and per region gives an indication of the size of a target group.
