Swale ranks 747 of the 1105 areas we serve by number of micro businesses, and its micro share of 89% is in line with the 89% average across them. In wholesale and retail (645 micro businesses in Swale), closing stock and the VAT treatment of different product lines are the usual pressure points, so we value stock carefully and check your VAT records. In professional, scientific and technical services (615 micro businesses in Swale), fee income, work in progress at the year end and how directors are paid are the key decisions, so we plan these with you before the accounts are finalised.
