A fast-growing customer base
Growth of 6.9% since 2021 has brought Tower Hamlets thousands of new residents. Each one is a customer who has not yet picked a favourite local business.
Tower Hamlets has 61 business units for every 1,000 residents, against about 47 across the UK. When customers have that many alternatives, the business that answers first usually wins the enquiry.
