BRILLIANT BRITISH PROFESSIONALS + BUSINESSES in Florida

 

FABBLogoUse

 SCROLL DOWN TO SEE THE LIST OF  BRITISH PROFESSIONALS, FABB MEMBERS AND BRITISH-OWNED BUSINESSES ACROSS FLORIDA.   We also have UK-based FABB members too, not shown here, who joined to use our relocation and immigration services. FABB membership numbers fluctuate, like all associations.  Some are not listed on this page for requested privacy reasons. This page, by its very nature, is a work forever in progress! FABB has helped British businesses and individuals succeed in Florida since 1997.   We also have an unequalled team of immigration and relocation experts, in place since then, advising UK Brits move to Florida.  NOTE:  In our British Bureau database we have thousands of associate British business-owners and professionals across Florida and UK in all industries .  TO JOIN FABB:  Email your name + city + business name to britishbusinessflorida@gmail.com   On the subject line put  JOIN FABB.  

► There are hundreds of small British-owned/run businesses operating in all Florida cities, but few major UK companies actually headquartered here employing local British staff.   Also, there are over 300 UK -affiliated companies in Florida, employing more about49, 000 Floridians.  Meanwhile, US firms employ about a million people in the UK, including Florida companies like World Fuel Services and Office Depot.  These figures fluctuate obviously,  so call the British Consulate Trade office in Miami [305] 400-6400 for current information. To avoid visa issues, UK companies with a Florida branch usually employ local American or Hispanic staff, with maybe one or two British staffers sent over on contract.   But there are thousands of British professionals, sole proprietorships and entrepreneurs established here, as evidenced by files maintained exclusively by the British Bureau of Florida since 1991.  Said resident Britons work in all types of businesses in all Florida zipcodes.   They have a colossal professional presence in Florida.   Most British-run businesses in Florida are 10 employees or less.  They are not required to register with the British government and open/close/move so current complete lists are a challenge to maintain.  The British Bureau is the only office in Florida maintaining files on British-run businesses across Florida.  A percentage are shown on this website and you will find some,  as members of FABB [Florida Association of British Business], listed in our membership directory:

►  The British Consulate-General office in Miami, Florida‘s trade office of the UK Government, called UKTI,   keeps a current list of UK-owned companies with branches/offices operating here. Tel. [305] 400-6400—choose trade option.   ALSO TO TRADE WITH THE UK from Florida, find an agent or distributor there, contact the Miami Consulate-General.

►  FLORIDA RANKS NUMBER 2 as best state in the USA to do business, according to a May 2014 study by Chief Executive Magazine.  They surveyed 500 CEO’s across the country about the best and worst states for business. The survey measures tax and regulatory regime, workforce quality and attractive  living environment. Texas was number 1 and California last of all.  To nobody’s surprise, Florida beat Texas in the quality of living environment category. Beaches beat oil rigs.  California came last due to its taxes and regulatory issues for business.

► Below are experienced British professionals in Florida. As with anybody you hire, do your due diligence, check out any required licences and talk to them before hiring:  See if they’re a fit for your needs!
