Business survival and continuation trends
What share of comparable new firms or establishments remains operating after each stated duration in this industry and area, and how is that survival pattern changing?
The data that answers it
Ranked by fit · best firstBED's standing annual-opening-cohort table publishes opening cohort, March observation period, surviving establishment count, survival rate since birth, and prior-year conditional survival rate. Cohort and observation periods pin the survival horizon; this is establishment survival, not firm-level legal continuation, and is delivered by downloadable tables rather than a verified survival API.
Persistent location identifiers across fixed annual operating-only snapshots allow a buyer to define a first-observed operating-location cohort and measure the share still observed in later July snapshots. This is supplemental evidence of database-observed location continuation, with horizons and denominators calculated from pinned snapshots; first appearance is not opening, disappearance is not an exact closure event, and firm survival, causal failure, uncensored all-market survival, and a vendor-emitted survival rate are not claimed.
