Today, we celebrate SME Day, a tribute to the backbone of the UK economy - our Small and Medium-sized Enterprises.
SMEs account for 99.9% of the UK's business population, employing around 16.3 million people and generating approximately £2.3 trillion in revenue annually, which is about 51% of the total turnover in the UK private sector.
They also contribute around 52% of the UK's GDP per capita. From local shops and family-run businesses to tech start-ups and creative agencies, these enterprises drive innovation, create jobs, and foster community spirit across the nation. Let’s honour their resilience, creativity, and hard work.
Support your local SMEs today and recognise their vital role in shaping a prosperous UK.
Happy SME Day!
