New Business Data (NBD) have a team of researchers that collects information about companies who are, new businesses, new branches of an existing business, new owners of a business or relocated businesses.

The information gives an insight into the types of businesses setting up, they have just released their analysis for the first quarter of this year compared with last year.

NBD say that overall there has been an increase in the percentage of new businesses setting up, with a decline in businesses changing hands and getting new owners.

Antony Allen, managing director New Business Data commented, “It would seem that we still like to look good with a 19% increase in the number of beauty salons setting up. Of all new businesses, unisex hairdressers were the most popular business to setup in 2012, the numbers setting up are similar to last year”.

NBD’s figures also show the total number of new restaurants setting up has remained steady, but the British still have a love affair with Indian cuisine which has shown an almost 40% increase in new establishments.

Take Away Food Shops setting up increased by 36% while Fish and Chip Shops declined, Cafes and Tea rooms have expanded over the past twelve months, growing by 15%.
