Selling to new Aberdeen companies

A company in its first months is still choosing who it works with. Reaching it then, with a short email that names what it has just started, is often the easiest time to win them as a client.

  • Marketing agenciesA new company needs a website, a logo and its first customers, usually before it has picked anyone to help.
  • AccountantsEvery new company owes a first set of accounts and a confirmation statement, and many have no accountant yet.
  • IT and software firmsEmail, devices and security get set up in the first months, and the choices made then tend to stick.
  • Insurance brokersEmployers' liability, professional indemnity and van cover are bought early, often in a hurry.
  • RecruitersThe first hires come quickly once a new company wins work.

Leadistry reads the new Aberdeen registrations every morning, keeps the ones with a working website and a real email, and writes the first email for you to approve. The first 25 leads are free.

The most registered SIC codes in Aberdeen

Counting active companies whose registered office is a Aberdeen post town, these are the codes that come up most often on the August 2026 Companies House snapshot. Other business support service activities n.e.c. leads with 902 companies. It is worth reading against the sectors below: the authored view is what Aberdeen is known for, this is what its companies actually filed.

  1. 82990Other business support service activities n.e.c.902
  2. 68209Other letting and operating of own or leased real estate682
  3. 70229Other management consultancy activities (not financial)648

  7. 96090Other service activities n.e.c.370
  8. 71122Engineering related scientific and technical consulting activities335

Pick a code, then narrow by postcode and date. Every company you pull carries a working website and a real email, and we never charge for the ones we cannot complete.

Why do these counts add up to more than the total?

A company may register up to four SIC codes and these counts include every position, so a business filed under two of them appears twice.
