A company is counted in Edinburgh by the town in its registered address at Companies House, which is not always where it trades.
Figures are indicative. They are computed from a sample of accounts filed with Companies House and the Norwegian register, read by machine, and are only as good as those filings; they can contain mistakes, and the dataset is not exhaustive. Found a mistake? Report it through the contact form.
