In Bath we are fortunate to have a mixed economy with many
thriving sectors. Congratulations to all of those who have
made the list and work so hard to keep growing. As we move
towards Brexit and the unknown territory it brings, we all
need to support one another. We encourage you to keep it
local, using the services of firms in Bath and its surrounds to
keep our local economy thriving.
When you spot the Top 100 circle in this magazine, it
means the company featured is in this year’s list.
