UK creative industries worth £71bn a year and fastest-growing sector

"It makes total sense because we got the idea from a shopping app. You don't shop for [particular items] you shop for shoes, you shop for dresses. You shop in buckets, so we were like OK, we need buckets."

The new figures value the UK creative industries as a whole at £76.9 billion a year – contributing an incredible £8.8 million to the UK economy every hour. The creative sector as a whole is up nearly 10% from last year’s £71.4bn, growing at three times the rate of the wider UK economy – but design itself is growing at double that rate.
