UK Book Publishers

Every active UK company whose main declared activity is book publishing. Around 9,000 companies. SIC class 58110. THE CAVEAT THAT MATTERS: self-publishing has made this code much broader than the trade. A single author who incorporated to publish their own work sits alongside established publishing houses and the register does not distinguish them, so filter on size_band if you want the trade rather than the long tail. Print services, distribution, rights management and editorial services sell into this list.

Our view of the dataset

What this cut actually looks like.

Measured from this product's own query rather than the dataset as a whole, so it describes what you would actually be buying.

FAQ

Good to know.

How is the file delivered?

It's generated on demand. When you buy, the query runs against the live data and builds your file right then, so it's current as of your purchase. You download it straight away.

What do I actually get?

A one-off download of this exact cut, all 9,378 rows and every column shown above, as a CSV file that opens in Excel or Google Sheets. It's a snapshot of the data as it is today. It does not include ongoing updates or API access, neither of which is available yet.

Can I set up an API?

Yes, on request. We can turn on API access for this dataset against your account, and you issue your own key from your dashboard. It returns the same data as the file, over HTTP, in JSON, with the edition date on every response so your systems can tell when there is something new to pull.

It is not a live feed. The data changes when the register is refreshed, roughly monthly, and the API serves whatever the current edition is. Access is arranged per dataset rather than bought from the site, so ask us and we will set it up.

Can I try before buying?

Yes. The preview above is real data, and the 15-row sample download gives you every column so you can check the format and quality first.

Can I use it commercially?

Yes. A commercial and internal-business licence is included. Redistribution as-is is restricted; enterprise redistribution rights are available on request.

Is VAT included, and do I get an invoice?

The price shown includes UK VAT at 20%, so it is the amount you pay with nothing added at the end, and checkout shows the split before you commit. A VAT invoice is raised and emailed automatically when payment goes through, carrying our VAT number and the tax breakdown, so a UK VAT-registered business can reclaim the VAT without asking us for anything.
