Hospitality accounts for 10.9% of local businesses, compared with 6.5% nationally, and health and care for 7.3%, compared with 4.4%. The first needs door supervisors and late cover when venues are busiest. The second needs a calm presence at reception, support for staff working alone and someone to attend out of hours. Construction and professional services, the two largest groups, complete the local picture. - Hospitality at 10.9% of Eastbourne firms - Health and care at 7.3%, against 4.4% - 48 pubs, bars and nightclubs within 5km - Six industrial estates within 5km Get a Quote [View Eastbourne on OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=Eastbourne%2C%20East%20Sussex) Eastbourne Business Profile ## Eastbourne's 3,065 businesses Eastbourne has 3,065 registered businesses.
