Run from Suffolk · working across the UK

Where we work.

Grafto is run from Suffolk, where Green & Home Ltd has its warehouse in Mildenhall. Everything we sell works online, so we serve the rest of the UK remotely. We don’t have offices, staff or events anywhere else, and these pages don’t pretend otherwise.

In Suffolk? See our Suffolk page and the Bury St Edmunds events.

Nations and regions

Different places, different starting points.

Each page uses the latest ONS business counts to show what local businesses mostly do, and which of our products is likely to fit. The column on the right is the sector each area has most of, compared with the UK.

About these figures. Source: ONS UK Business Counts 2026, via Nomis (ONS bulletin). The counts are enterprises registered for VAT and/or PAYE at a reference date in March 2026, so many very small sole traders are not included. City figures are for the local authority area. Ranks are among the 12 UK nations and English regions. Sectors are SIC 2007 divisions: construction is 41–43, wholesale 46, retail 47, motor trade 45, hospitality 55–56, professional services 69–71 and 73, software and IT 62, and cleaning, facilities and landscaping 81. Region pages show only the sectors relevant to our products, so their shares do not add up to 100%.

Six big cities, looked at on their own.

A city’s mix is often very different from its region’s, so these get their own pages.
