WHAT THIS DATA SHOWS

What International Trade covers

  • Import activity

    Whether the business has recorded imports, with the main and secondary categories it imports in.

  • Export activity

    The same on the export side, held separately so importers and exporters can be selected apart.

  • Breadth of trade

    The number of distinct trade categories recorded, which separates a business trading one line from one trading many.

  • Recency and duration

    Months with recorded activity and the latest month covered by the summary, so dormant records can be told from active ones.

HOW WE BUILD THIS DATA

Sources and maintenance

  • Sources

    Licensed datasets summarising recorded UK import and export activity.

  • Checks

    Trade activity is matched to the business record and summarised into categories, months active and a latest covered month.

  • Maintenance

    Summaries are rebuilt as new activity is processed, and the latest covered month is carried so recency is visible.
