Number of enterprises in the vehicle parts industry in the United Kingdom, 2003-2018
This statistic shows the number of companies working in the motor vehicle parts industry in the United Kingdom (UK) between 2003/04 and 2017/18 including forecasts for 2013 to 2018. Although this number has declined somewhat in post-recession UK, the number has remained relatively steady, especially when compared with the decline in actual establishments. This suggests that companies are closing some of their establishments in order to cut costs and thus stay in business.
