ACTIVE COMPANIES BY REGISTERED-OFFICE POST TOWN (WHERE THE PAPERWORK SITS, NOT NECESSARILY THE WORK) · COMPANIES HOUSE PUBLIC RECORD, AUGUST 2026
The five busiest post towns hold 61 per cent of them and Cambridge alone 28 per cent. Selling nationally, those towns are most of the market. Selling locally outside them, expect a small pool, so cover a county or a region rather than one town.
A worked example: 20200, registered office in Cambridge, incorporated in the last ninety days, from a pool of 512. Each lead you get arrives with a working website and a real email, and the director's name when the record has one. If we cannot complete one, you pay nothing.

How to read SIC 20200
SIC 20200 reads as division 20 (manufacture of chemicals and chemical products), group 202, class 2020, then the full five digits, inside section C, manufacturing. A company picks its own codes, up to four, and Companies House does not check them, so 20200 is the company's own description of what it does, and 164 list it first where 512 list it anywhere.

If you make the products yourself, 20420 is the closest fit. It is manufacture of perfumes and toilet preparations, and it covers cosmetics, soaps and toiletries. Candle makers often use it too, or choose a code from division 32. If you only sell goods made by others, a retail code suits you better. The choice is self-declared and carries no regulatory weight. Cosmetics rules apply based on what you actually do.
