Codiance, the Welsh-based bespoke software and solutions business, has been ranked 26th in the UK Top 200 of the 2026 UK Fast Growth Index, after more than doubling its turnover in just two years.
It is also ranked among the fastest-growing businesses in Wales and was named the UK’s fastest-growing bespoke software developer.
Mark Hesketh, Managing Director of Codiance, said:
“Being recognised amongst the UK’s fastest-growing businesses is something we’re incredibly proud of. Our growth has always been built around doing great work for our clients and building relationships that last, so this recognition belongs just as much to our team and the organisations that continue to put their trust in us.”
The 2026 UK Fast Growth Index reveals the 350 fastest-growing independent businesses across the UK’s nations and regions. Together, they have more than doubled in size in just two years, with combined turnover rising from £4.3 billion in 2023 to £10.2 billion in 2025, an increase of 137 per cent.
Professor Dylan Jones-Evans OBE, founder of the UK Fast Growth Index, said:
“Codiance is a great example of the extraordinary talent and ambition we see in businesses across every part of the UK. Earning a place on this year’s Index, alongside firms that have together more than doubled in size in just two years, is a remarkable achievement, and the whole team should be very proud.
“At a time when we hear so much about the challenges facing the UK economy, businesses like Codiance show what is possible when they are given the chance to grow. The challenge now is to help more of them become those incredible high-growth businesses that make a massive impact across the country.”
