Get voting for Horsham to be the top town for business in the UK!

It’s not just that it’s got wonderful towns and villages and the stunning South Downs. It has facilities and structures which are second to none.

And it’s what makes our District and Horsham town a very desirable location for businesses. Horsham is quite simply a fantastic place to live and work.

There are some 8,000 active businesses in Horsham District, the highest number of any authority in West Sussex.

Horsham District is a successful small-business hub. Just over 87 per cemt of our businesses employ less than nine people.

We are proud of our fantastic one-year small-business survival rate of 91.3 per cent, the second highest in West Sussex.

Many high tech businesses choose to make Horsham their home, including internationally acclaimed Metricell who lead cutting edge work to help governments and businesses to create a better connected world and who I had the pleasure of meeting when I was Chairman of Horsham District Council when they were presented with the Queen’s Award for Enterprise: International Trade in 2016 and were awarded it again in 2020.
