The number
37,157 active registered companies with a Wrocław address. Third among Polish cities, narrowly behind Kraków.
The sector mix is the distinguishing feature. Wrocław is the only one of the four largest Polish cities where construction outranks IT, and it carries more transport and logistics companies than Kraków does, which follows from its position on the German corridor.
Wrocław accounts for 5.1 percent of every registered company in Poland.

Sector is derived from the registered activity classification, so a company with mixed activity is assigned to its primary one. The uncategorised group covers entities whose filed classification is too generic to place.
Revenue bands
Filed revenue is available for 16,382 of the 37,157 companies, from the most recent financial year on file. Figures are in Polish zloty.
| Revenue band | Companies | Share of those with revenue |
|---|---|---|
| Under 100,000 PLN | 7,341 | 44.8% |
| 100,000 to 500,000 | 4,311 | 26.3% |
| 500,000 to 2m | 2,958 | 18.1% |
| 2m to 10m | 1,359 | 8.3% |
| 10m to 50m | 340 | 2.1% |
| Over 50m | 73 | 0.4% |
44.1% of the city has a filed figure. The companies without one skew smaller and younger, so a revenue filter quietly biases the list towards established firms.
Website presence
8,432 of 37,157, or 22.7%, have a website in our data.
Most prospecting stacks start with a domain: find the company, find the site, guess the email pattern, verify it. Remove the site and the chain breaks at step one, so a domain-first workflow reaches only the online slice of the city.
New registrations
Companies registered in each year that are still active today.
| Year | Still-active registrations |
|---|---|
| 2021 | 2,852 |
| 2022 | 2,810 |
| 2023 | 2,865 |
| 2024 | 3,008 |
| 2025 | 2,877 |
| 2026 (to August) | 1,591 |
The 2026 row covers January to August only. Because the population is restricted to companies still active today, older cohorts are understated by the firms that have since closed.
What this means for targeting
Construction and industry are the differentiators. 3,929 construction firms and 2,833 manufacturers, both above what the city's size would predict. Anyone selling to those sectors should weight Wrocław more heavily than population suggests.
The German connection matters. Wrocław sits closer to Dresden than to Warsaw, and a meaningful share of its manufacturing and logistics base serves German customers. Campaigns that reference German supply chains land differently here.
413 companies turn over more than 10 million zloty. That is the whole enterprise segment of the city.
How the count was made
The snapshot is built from Poland register data, deduplicated on registration number and filtered to entities with an active status. City is the registered address, so a company headquartered elsewhere with an operation in Wrocław is not counted here, and a holding entity registered in Wrocław with no local activity is.
Revenue is the most recent filed figure per company rather than a common year. Website presence means we hold a domain associated with the record, not that the site is live today.
Every figure on this page comes from one query against that snapshot.
