Deeper numbers
Survival, trouble signs, competition and people for carpenter & joiner in Borås.
Competition
No company runs more than one place of business here, an independent market.
New and established
A young market: many recent start-ups, dynamic, but less proven.
Moving in and out
A move is a place of business closing and the same company opening one in another area within 90 days. Chains are left out. A business that moves and keeps its place-of-business number isn't counted here yet, so the real number of moves is higher.
Distance to the nearest one
Measured from each neighbourhood centre in the municipality.
When businesses open and close
