83. Handmade crafts
The demand for craft products is still high. They are ideally suited for gifts or home decorations. A particularly good idea for such a business is to sell craft products typical to various other countries (especially craft products in the style of those from distant and non-European countries can attract a lot of interest).

84. Membership clubs
Another of the very forward-looking London business ideas are ubscription-based membership clubs, such as those offering exclusive deals or unique experiences. Such businesses are already becoming a popular business model.

85. Luxury pet products & services
Many pet owners want the best for their pets and want to give them as good and special a life as possible. For this reason, luxury pet services such as luxury pet sitting for clients with high-end needs and preferences, as well as luxury pet clothes, ornaments, beds and toys, are becoming increasingly popular in the UK.

86. Personalized jewelry creation
A popular business trend in recent years is the personalization of personal items such as jewelry. If you offer unique opportunities for such personalization, and a convenient and easy way to do it, you can be very successful. It is worth keeping innovation and new technologies (such as smart jewelry) in mind when doing this business.

87. UK-EU business legal services
After Brexit, many businesses need legal assistance in doing business with European Union partners. Advanced legal services in this field, as well as advice, guidance and consulting, are services that are in high demand in London and throughout the UK. Such business advice and assistance can also manifest itself in the search for business partners in the European Union, business support, filing of documents and video consultations with business and legal specialists.

88. Mobile manicure & pedicure services
Beautiful nails are something that many British women love. However, many ladies sometimes don’t have the time or inclination to go far to a beautician. An interesting solution to such a problem can be mobile manicure and pedicure services.

89. Smart jewelry (store or startup)
Intelligent jewelry is a combination of beauty, prestige and cutting edge technology that makes life easier. Smart rings, necklaces and bracelets have become increasingly popular in recent years, but the market is still underdeveloped and full of numerous opportunities.

90. Minority store 
Britain is full of various minorities. This creates an opportunity to create unique businesses with the profile of a particular minority, offering unique products or services that are hard to find in other salon stores or restaurants. Uniqueness is a very profitable trait in business, so such unique minorities can provide great inspiration for very profitable businesses.

91. Local grocery delivery service in your community (or other local delivery services)
Many large stores offer product delivery and there is nothing special about it anymore. However, most small local stores still do not offer such services, so this is a great niche for a profitable business. All you need to do is organize a good network of professional and trustworthy shopping couriers and you can start such a business.

92. Small scale manufacturing
Small scale manufacturing may be a good idea for a profitable business to start in London. It’s important to make a business plan and analyse the market and your competitors. There are a number of very profitable products to manufacture which can generate a lot of money. Examples of such products are: shoes, soap, scented candles, perfumes, cookies, home decorations, furniture, jewelry and many other items.

94. Renewable energy repair & maintenance
Green energy involves a lot of installations, connections and technical conversions. Renewable energy also requires maintenance and service, and sometimes repair of used equipment. Since this field of energy is currently developing a lot, the demand for this type of repair and maintenance services will increase. Selling and installing green energy can also be a good business idea.

95. Biotech company
Demand for the services of biotech companies is strong and will continue to grow both in the UK and around the world. Production of medical devices and diagnostics, biomaterials, biofuels or pollution controls are just some of the very profitable things such a company can offer. Such companies are also key in agriculture and in many areas of industry, so this is undoubtedly a valuable niche business that will be very profitable in the coming years.

96. Glamping (organization & related products sale)
Everyone needs to get out of the city sometimes and get closer to nature. Glamping is a great way to relax, unwind and get some peace and tranquility. England is full of beautiful peaceful natural places that are perfect for glamping. You can advertise your glamping business using social media to show future customers pictures and videos of your glamping business.

97. Luxury reusable grocery bags & high quality reusable grocery bags
Reusable shopping bags are things that hundreds of millions of people around the world use. These bags are usually boring, simple, banal and not very distinctive – this is a great business opportunity – offer such bags in a luxury version, in an ultra-convenient version, or in a compact version so that it is easy to fold such bags. The potential for improvement of such bags is very wide, and there will certainly be many people willing to buy such a bag.

98. 100% organic grocery store
If you want to start an organic grocery store, you need to know some important factors. The most important factor is sourcing the best suppliers for your products. This should be done by contacting the major organizations that favor organic products and ask them to provide you with better bulk deals. Next, you need to educate your staff on the benefits of organic products.
