Berkshire is a ceremonial county run by six unitary councils, Reading, West Berkshire, Wokingham, Bracknell Forest, Slough and Windsor and Maidenhead, with no county council above them. Adding the six 2021 Census figures together gives 949,700 residents: Wokingham 177,500, Reading 174,200, West Berkshire 161,400, Slough 158,500, Windsor and Maidenhead 153,500 and Bracknell Forest 124,600. That total is our own arithmetic on published ONS figures, because ONS does not publish a single total for a ceremonial county.

The corporate weight here is unusual for the size. The county’s own economic strategy names Vodafone, Johnson and Johnson, Oracle, Reckitt Benckiser, Fujitsu, Syngenta and Honda among its employers, with Vodafone and Three now merged into VodafoneThree, and Slough Trading Estate describes itself as the largest business centre of its kind in Europe in single private ownership, with hundreds of businesses and a working population in the tens of thousands. Every one of those sites has a supply chain of smaller local firms around it, and those firms get chosen on a search.

The strategy’s stated target is to take county output from £52.5bn to £70.5bn by 2035, backing the national growth sectors: advanced manufacturing, clean energy, creative industries, defence, digital and technologies, financial services, life sciences and professional services. For a Berkshire business that means the market gets busier rather than quieter, and the firms that are already easy to find take the extra work. If you want the local relationships alongside the search work, Thames Valley Chamber of Commerce describes itself as the biggest business membership organisation in the Thames Valley.
