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 42 per cent of them and London alone 36 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: 79909, registered office in London, incorporated in the last ninety days, from a pool of 4,741. 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.

A company picks its own codes, up to four, and Companies House does not check them, so 79909 is the company's own description of what it does, and 2,388 list it first where 4,741 list it anywhere.
Who sells into division 79
Suppliers to travel work these codes for bedbank access, booking technology, merchant payment services and specialist insurance. ATOL consultants and trade associations target new tour operators, who face financial protection duties that agencies do not.
About SIC 79909

Do I need an ATOL before registering a travel SIC code?
No, the two are unrelated. Companies House accepts any SIC code without checks, chosen at incorporation or on the confirmation statement (CS01). An ATOL comes from the Civil Aviation Authority. You need one before you sell flight-inclusive holidays in the UK. Many agents avoid holding their own by working under a host or consortium. That is a regulatory decision, not a registration one.
