UK SIC 2007 · 01250
Growing of other tree and bush fruits and nuts (SIC code 01250)
Growing of other tree and bush fruits and nuts is UK SIC code 01250. It sits in division 01 (Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities) of the SIC 2007 list. On the August 2026 Companies House register, 567 active UK companies list 01250 among their SIC codes. 430 of them list it first.
This division holds Britain's working farms. It covers arable growers, livestock keepers and the contractors who help them. Mixed farming, code 01500, is the most common choice. Family farms pick it when they run crops and animals together. Growers of cereals and oilseed use 01110 instead. Agricultural contractors sit in the support codes 01610 and 01629. That takes in crop spraying, livestock work and shearing. Many firms here are long-established partnerships. They only became limited companies in the last few years.
Who prospects SIC 01250 companies
Accountants with farm clients watch this division. A farm that incorporates has usually just restructured. That brings steady compliance work, from payroll to capital allowances on machinery. Land agents, farm insurers and machinery dealers sell here too. A recent incorporation date is the strongest signal. It often marks a succession or a new diversification project. Farm websites are frequently years out of date. The poor-website filter finds those firms quickly, which suits web designers and rural marketing services. Filing deadlines give accountants a natural moment to get in touch.

SIC 01250 is a five-digit code, and the digits are not arbitrary. The first two, 01, are the division, crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities. Add the third and you have group 012; the fourth narrows it to a class, and the fifth to the subclass, which is the level Companies House actually asks a company to pick. The whole division sits under section A, agriculture, forestry and fishing, the broadest tier there is. Reading a code left to right therefore goes from a whole sector down to one activity.
More on how SIC 01250 is built
A company chooses its own codes when it incorporates and can change them on any confirmation statement. It may list up to four, and Companies House does not check whether they are right. That is why 01250 is worth reading as a claim the company made about itself rather than as a verified fact, and why the first-position and any-position counts above differ.
Measured on the August 2026 register, the busiest registered-office post towns for 01250 are Derby (64), London (40), Maidstone (9), Norwich (8) and Edinburgh (8). Those are registered-office locations, which is where the paperwork sits rather than necessarily where the work happens, so treat them as where to start looking rather than as a service area.
Using SIC 01250 as a filter
567 companies is 0.01 per cent of the 5,190,464 active companies on the UK register, and ranks 01250 16th most used of the 17 codes we track in division 01. That is the pool before any filter. Whether it is a big market for you depends on what you sell, but it is the number every other filter on this page cuts down from.

430 companies put 01250 first and a further 137, 24 per cent, list it in one of their other three SIC slots. That gap is the difference between a tight list and a broad one. First-code-only is the safer filter when you are writing to them; matching any position is worth it when you need the volume.
These companies are spread out. Derby is the largest single cluster at 11 per cent and the top five post towns together hold only 23 per cent, so the remaining 77 per cent sits across the rest of the country. A regional filter narrows this list without gutting it, which makes it a reasonable code to work territory by territory.
In practice the code on its own is rarely the whole filter. Pair 01250 with an incorporation date to catch companies in their first months, when they are still choosing suppliers, or with a filing deadline to reach them while the year end is on their mind. A worked example for this code: 01250, registered office in Derby, incorporated in the last ninety days, which turns a 567 company pool into a list you can write to in an afternoon. Add the poor-website filter if what you sell is a website, or a recent change of officer if you sell to whoever just took the job. Every company you pull carries the Companies House record, the director's name, a verified website and a verified email, and the ones we cannot complete are not charged.

About SIC 01250
How many UK companies use SIC code 01250?
567 active UK companies list 01250 (Growing of other tree and bush fruits and nuts) among their registered SIC codes. Each company may register up to four. Of those, 430 put it first. The figures come from the August 2026 Companies House register snapshot, and count active companies only.
Should a farm register under mixed farming (01500) or a specific crop or livestock code?
Pick the code that matches most of your turnover. Choose 01500 mixed farming if you run arable and livestock together and neither one leads. A grower who focuses on cereals fits 01110 better. Companies House does not check what you pick. You can change it on your next confirmation statement if the business shifts.
Can an agricultural contractor also list a haulage or plant hire code?
Yes. A company can hold up to four SIC codes at once. They can come from completely different divisions. Many contractors add a transport or machinery rental code next to 01610 or 01629. That shows their second income stream. You declare codes at incorporation, or change them on the annual confirmation statement (form CS01). No approval step is involved.
