Uk Sic Code 46 Company List Data: Dataset Structure and Field Coverage

SIC 2007 division 46 is wholesale trade, and each row carries up to four SIC fields (SICCode.SicText_1 through SicText_4), so a single text-prefix filter captures wholesalers even when wholesale is not a firm's primary classification. Codes run from 46110 (agents involved in the sale of agricultural raw materials, livestock, food) through specialised and non-specialised wholesale to 46900. Sample rows in the catalog show exactly what a match looks like: THE SALES AGENCY LIMITED (company number 12951140, London, incorporated 14 October 2020) sits against "46130 - Agents involved in the sale of timber and building materials".

The schema is documented in a companion field-description PDF, and Datadory marks its field definitions verified rather than inferred - a bar only 85.7% of cataloged datasets clear (1,495 of 1,744). Firmographic coverage is complete enough that most CRM enrichment stops needing a second vendor: CompanyName and CompanyNumber (eight characters), the full registered office block down to RegAddress.PostCode, CompanyCategory (Private Limited Company, PLC, LLP), CompanyStatus, IncorporationDate and DissolutionDate, accounts and confirmation-statement due dates with last-made-up dates, four mortgage/charge counters, up to ten previous names, and the four SIC codes.

The register fixes the denominator: roughly 5-6 million live UK companies across the seven parts, every one of them a candidate for the prefix filter. What it cannot tell you is turnover or headcount by segment - the product carries no financial figures - so sizing work joins aggregates from the same slice. Eurostat's Short-term business statistics for NACE G46 publish monthly turnover and volume-of-sales series across 42 geographies from January 1991 (about 20 million cells in the full sts_trtu_m cube), Statistics Canada's Table 20-10-0074-01 ships 189,118 monthly sales rows by province and six-digit NAICS 41 industry since January 1993, and BEA's GDP by Industry accounts give value added and gross output for US wholesale trade (NAICS 42) back to 1947. Data USA's Wholesale Trade profile adds establishment counts through a free tesseract OLAP API spanning 126 cubes - useful when a territory plan needs account-pool density rather than names.

Teams running the full workflow - register for the who, shipment records for trading partners, PMI and turnover series for timing - usually start from the sales-growth persona view, where this dataset ranks relevance 3 out of the 14 qualifying records scored for prospecting work.
