included.
If a number of companies in Dorset are part of a group which has its head office elsewhere, then the individual companies will each be listed with their own spe-
cific figures.
No existing ranking or format exists as a basis for the information which has been compiled solely by DECISION business magazine.
In the index, a dash or blank space in a year-on-year comparison column means that no data exists for one of the two financial years in question.
