About British Gas Business

British Gas Business is the commercial energy arm of British Gas, part of Centrica plc — one of the UK's largest energy companies. Trading as British Gas Trading Limited (company registration 03078711), they supply electricity and gas to hundreds of thousands of UK businesses, from small independent shops to large multi-site commercial portfolios.

British Gas Business offers fixed-term and flexible contract options, smart metering, and an online account portal for managing bills and meter readings. Their business customer services team operates Monday to Friday, 8am–8pm, and Saturday 8am–2pm on 0333 202 9802.

As an independent broker, The Best Energy Rates can compare British Gas Business renewal prices against options from our panel of UK business energy suppliers and help you decide whether to stay or switch. There is no separate fee payable to TBER for our standard comparison service.
