Reading the table

Construction, retail, hospitality and the motor trade lead by count, which is what any Mediterranean village economy looks like from the register.

Further down the table, technology and software, marketing and creative, professional services, and finance and investment together account for 24 of the 114. Two dozen firms of the kind that normally cluster in Limassol are operating instead out of a golf resort and the village beside it, and on the connections evidence most of them have no link to each other.

Where each sector sits is worth noting too. Construction is almost entirely a village business, with 15 of 17 registered outside the resort, while professional services and tourism run the other way. Real estate and property management is the one sector concentrated inside Aphrodite Hills, which follows from what the resort is. Agriculture and fishing sits at the other end, two businesses and both of them in Kouklia, which is the oldest thing on this table and the easiest to forget is still here.

A change from an earlier version of this page: real estate and property management, 9 businesses, was previously left out of the published table. It is included here. Leaving out a sector because it sits awkwardly with the Circle's focus would have quietly misstated the thing this page exists to state accurately.

Next: how connected these companies already are.

Sector is assigned by hand, because the register does not carry a classification code worth using. Snapshot compiled September 2026.
