Foreword
The Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía (INEGI) of Mexico, Statistics Canada, and the
United States Office of Management and Budget, through its Economic Classification Policy
Committee, have jointly updated the system of classification of economic activities that makes the
industrial statistics produced in the three countries comparable. The North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS) revision for 2017 is scheduled to go into effect for reference year
2017 in Canada and the United States, and 2018 in Mexico. NAICS was originally developed to
provide a consistent framework for the collection, analysis, and dissemination of industrial statistics
used by government policy analysts, by academics and researchers, by the business community, and
by the public. Revisions for 2017 were made to account for our rapidly changing economies.
Classifications serve as a lens through which to view the data they classify. NAICS is the first
industry classification system that was developed in accordance with a single principle of
aggregation, the principle that producing units that use similar production processes should be
grouped together. NAICS also reflects, in a much more explicit way, the enormous changes in
technology and in the growth and diversification of services that have marked recent decades.
Though NAICS differs from other industry classification systems, the three countries continue to
strive to create industries that do not cross two-digit boundaries of the United Nations’ International
Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC).
The actual classification reveals only the tip of the work carried out by dedicated staff from
INEGI, Statistics Canada, and U.S. statistical agencies. It is through their efforts, painstaking
analysis, and spirit of accommodation that NAICS has emerged as a harmonized international
classification of economic activities in North America.

Preface
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) represents a continuing
cooperative effort among Statistics Canada, Mexico's Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía
(INEGI), and the Economic Classification Policy Committee (ECPC) of the United States, acting on
behalf of the Office of Management and Budget, to create and maintain a common industry
classification system. With its inception in 1997, NAICS replaced the existing classification of each
countrythe Standard Industrial Classification (1980) of Canada, the Mexican Classification of
Activities and Products (1994), and the Standard Industrial Classification (1987) of the United
States. Since 1997, the countries have collaborated in producing five-year revisions to NAICS in
order to keep the classification system current with changes in economic activities.
The North American Industry Classification System is unique among industry classifications in
that it is constructed within a single conceptual framework. Economic units that have similar
production processes are classified in the same industry, and the lines drawn between industries
demarcate, to the extent practicable, differences in production processes. This supply-based, or
production-oriented, economic concept was adopted for NAICS because an industry classification
system is a framework for collecting and publishing information on both inputs and outputs, for
statistical uses that require that inputs and outputs be used together and be classified consistently.
Examples of such uses include measuring productivity, unit labor costs, and the capital intensity of
production, estimating employment-output relationships, constructing input-output tables, and other
uses that imply the analysis of production relationships in the economy. The classification concept
for NAICS leads to production of data that facilitate such analyses.
In the design of NAICS, attention was given to developing production-oriented classifications
for (a) new and emerging industries, (b) service industries in general, and (c) industries engaged in
the production of advanced technologies. These special emphases are embodied in the particular
features of NAICS, discussed below. These same areas of special emphasis account for many of the
differences between the structure of NAICS and the structures of industry classification systems in
use elsewhere. NAICS provides enhanced industry comparability among the three North American
Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) trading partners, while also increasing compatibility with the two-
digit level of the International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC, Rev. 4) of the United
Nations.
NAICS divides the economy into 20 sectors. Industries within these sectors are grouped
according to the production criterion. A key feature of NAICS is the Information sector that groups
industries that primarily create and disseminate a product subject to copyright. The NAICS
Information sector brings together those activities that transform information into a commodity that
is produced and distributed, and activities that provide the means for distributing those products,
other than through traditional wholesale-retail distribution channels. Industries included in this
sector are telecommunications; broadcasting; newspaper, book, and periodical publishing; motion
picture and sound recording industries; libraries; and other information services.
Another feature of NAICS is a sector for Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services that
comprises establishments engaged in activities where human capital is the major input. The
industries within this sector are each defined by the expertise and training of the service provider.
The sector includes such industries as offices of lawyers, engineering services, architectural
services, advertising agencies, and interior design services.
A sector for Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation includes a wide range of establishments that
4 NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
census.gov/naics
operate facilities or provide services to meet varied cultural, entertainment, and recreational interests
of their patrons.
Another key sector, Health Care and Social Assistance, recognizes the merging of the boundaries
of health care and social assistance. The industries in this sector are arranged in an order that reflects
the range and extent of health care and social assistance provided. Some important industries are
family planning centers, outpatient mental health and substance abuse centers, and continuing care
retirement communities.
In the Manufacturing sector, an important subsector, Computer and Electronic Product
Manufacturing, brings together industries producing electronic products and their components. The
manufacturers of computers, communications equipment, and semiconductors, for example, are
grouped into the same subsector because of the inherent technological similarities of their
production processes, and the likelihood that these technologies will continue to converge in the
future. NAICS acknowledges the importance of these electronic industries, their rapid growth over
the past several decades and the likelihood that these industries will, in the future, become even
more important in the economies of the three North American countries.
This NAICS structure reflects the levels at which data comparability was agreed upon by the
three countries' statistical agencies. The boundaries of all the sectors of NAICS are delineated. In
most sectors, NAICS provides for comparability at the industry (five-digit) level. However, for one
of the three subsectors in Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction, one of the three
industry groups in Utilities, one of the ten industry groups in Construction, two of the four
subsectors in Finance and Insurance, one of the three industry groups in the Real Estate
subsector, and two of the four subsectors in Other Services (except Public Administration),
three-country comparability occurs either at the industry group (four-digit) or subsector (three-
digit) level. For these sectors or subsectors, differences in the economies of the three countries
prevent full comparability at the NAICS industry level. For Retail Trade, Wholesale Trade, and
Public Administration, the three countries' statistical agencies have agreed, at this time, only on the
boundaries of the sector (two-digit level). Below the agreed upon level of comparability, each
country may add additional detailed industries, as necessary to meet national needs, provided that
this additional detail aggregates to the NAICS level.
The United States has adopted the revised classification in their statistical programs for the
reference year beginning in 2017.

Acknowledgments
This 2017 revision of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) was an
immense undertaking requiring the time, energy, creativity, and cooperation of numerous people
and organizations throughout the three countries. The work that has been accomplished is a
testament to the individual and collective willingness of many persons and organizations both inside
and outside the government to contribute to the development of NAICS. Within the United States,
NAICS was revised under the guidance of the Office of Management and Budget by the Economic
Classification Policy Committee (ECPC). Members of the ECPC were Dennis Fixler and Edward
T. Morgan, Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce; William G. Bostic, Jr.
(retired) and John B. Murphy (Chair), Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce;
David Talan, Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor; and ex officio, Paul Bugg
(retired), Office of Management and Budget.
In addition to the parties listed above, OMB would like to acknowledge the dedicated staff of the
Classification Development Branch at the Bureau of the Census. This staff was responsible for
researching, summarizing, and making preliminary recommendations to the ECPC for comments
received from the public on 2017 NAICS revisions; for preparing documents summarizing the
ECPC position for use in negotiations with Canada and Mexico; and for preparing all of the
manuscript files for the published manual. It was their hard work and dedication that resulted in
this complete documentation of 2017 NAICS United States.

Introduction
Background
In 1937, the Central Statistical Board established an Interdepartmental Committee on
Industrial Classification ''to develop a plan of classification of various types of statistical data by
industries and to promote the general adoption of such classification as the standard
classification of the Federal Government.''
1
The List of Industries for manufacturing was first
available in 1938, with the List of Industries for nonmanufacturing following in 1939. These
Lists of Industries became the first Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) for the United States.
The SIC was developed for use in the classification of establishments by type of activity in
which they are primarily engaged; for purposes of facilitating the collection, tabulation,
presentation, and analysis of data relating to establishments; and for promoting uniformity and
comparability in the presentation of statistical data collected by various agencies of the United
States Government, State agencies, trade associations, and private research organizations. The
SIC covered the entire field of economic activities by defining industries in accordance with the
composition and structure of the economy.
Since the inception of the SIC in the 1930’s, the system was periodically revised to reflect the
economy's changing industrial composition and organization. The last revision of the SIC was in
1987.
Rapid changes in both the U.S. and world economies brought the SIC under increasing
criticism. In 1991, an International Conference on the Classification of Economic Activities was
convened in Williamsburg, Virginia, to provide a forum for responding to such criticism and to
explore new approaches to classifying economic activity. In July 1992, the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) established the Economic Classification Policy Committee
(ECPC) and charged it with a ''fresh slate'' examination of economic classifications for statistical
purposes. The ECPC prepared a number of issue papers regarding classification, consulted with
outside users, and ultimately joined with Mexico's Instituto Nacional de Estadística, Geografía e
Informática (now the Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía) (INEGI) and Statistics
Canada to develop the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), which replaced
the 1987 U.S. SIC and the classification systems of Canada (1980 SIC) and Mexico (1994
Mexican Classification of Activities and Products (CMAP)).
The dynamic nature of world economies continues to affect classification systems. The
creators of NAICS agreed that the classification system should be reviewed every five years, and
revised as appropriate to reflect the changing economies of the three countries. The U.S.
statistical programs implemented NAICS for the first time in 1997. NAICS was revised in 2002,
2007, and 2012. This 2017 NAICS revision was undertaken to achieve one main goalto
modify or create industries to reflect new, emerging, or changing activities and technologies.
The impact of NAICS on various countries has brought about a renewed effort for additional
convergence with the many industry classifications used throughout the world. Future revisions
of NAICS will continue to strive for greater global comparability.

14 NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
census.gov/naics
Purpose of NAICS
NAICS is an industry classification system that groups establishments into industries based on
the similarity of their production processes. It is a comprehensive system covering all economic
activities. There are 20 sectors and 1,057 industries in 2017 NAICS United States.
NAICS was initially developed and subsequently revised by Mexico's INEGI, Statistics
Canada, and the U.S. ECPC (the latter acting on behalf of OMB) to provide common industry
definitions for Canada, Mexico, and the United States that will facilitate economic analyses of
the economies of the three North American countries. The statistical agencies in the three
countries produce information on inputs and outputs, industrial performance, productivity, unit
labor costs, and employment. NAICS, which is based on a production-oriented concept, ensures
maximum usefulness of industrial statistics for these and similar purposes.
NAICS United States is used by U.S. statistical agencies to facilitate the collection, tabulation,
presentation, and analysis of data relating to establishments; and to provide uniformity and
comparability in the presentation of statistical data describing the U.S. economy. NAICS United
States is designed for statistical purposes. Although the classification also may be used for
various administrative, regulatory, and taxation purposes, the requirements of government
agencies that use it for nonstatistical purposes played no role in its development or subsequent
revision.
Development of NAICS as a Replacement for the U.S. SIC
The U.S. ECPC established by OMB in 1992 was chaired by the Bureau of Economic
Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce, with representatives from the Bureau of the Census,
U.S. Department of Commerce, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor.
The ECPC was asked to examine economic classifications for statistical purposes and to
determine the desirability of developing a new industry classification system for the United
States based on a single economic concept. On March 31, 1993, OMB published a Federal
Register notice (58 FR 16990-17004) announcing the intention to revise the SIC for 1997, the
establishment of the ECPC, and the process for revising the SIC.
In July 1994, OMB announced plans to develop a new industry classification system in
cooperation with Mexico's INEGI and Statistics Canada. The new systemNAICSreplaced
the U.S. SIC. The concepts of the new system and the principles upon which NAICS was to be
developed were announced in a July 26, 1994, Federal Register notice (59 FR 38092-38096)
and were as follows:
1. NAICS will be erected on a production-oriented or supply-based conceptual framework.
This means that producing units that use identical or similar production processes will be
grouped together in NAICS.
2. The system will give special attention to developing production-oriented classifications for
(a) new and emerging industries, (b) service industries in general, and (c) industries engaged in
the production of advanced technologies.
3. Time series continuity will be maintained to the greatest extent possible. However, changes
in the economy and proposals from data users must be considered. In addition, adjustments will
be required for sectors where the United States, Canada, and Mexico have incompatible industry
INTRODUCTION 15
census.gov/naics
classification definitions in order to produce a common industry system for all three North
American countries.
4. The system will strive for compatibility with the two-digit level of the International
Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC, Rev. 3) of the United
Nations.
The structure of NAICS was developed in a series of meetings among the three countries.
Public proposals for individual industries from all three countries were considered for acceptance
if the proposed industry was based on the production-oriented concept of the system. In the
United States, public comments also were solicited as groups of subsectors of NAICS were
completed and agreed upon by the three countries. The ECPC published the proposed industries
for those subsectors in a series of five successive Federal Register notices, in 1995 and 1996,
asking for comments from interested data users.
Revision of NAICS for 2017
OMB published a notification of potential revision to NAICS for 2017 in a May 22, 2014,
Federal Register notice (79 FR 29626-29629). This notice solicited comments on: 1) new and
emerging industries for consideration in potential revisions to NAICS for 2017; 2) the electronic
dissemination of NAICS 2017; and 3) updating the structure of the oil and gas industries for
NAICS 2017. This notice also provided an update on the treatment of manufacturing units that
outsource all transformation activities. In addition, OMB published a notification regarding
implementation of the Factoryless Goods Producer (FGP) classification in NAICS 2017 in an
August 8, 2014, Federal Register notice (79 FR 46558-46559). This notice stated the directive
of the August 17, 2011, Federal Register notice (76 FR 51240-51243) was no longer in force, to
allow for additional research, testing, and evaluation of FGPs.
After considering all proposals from the public, consulting with a number of U.S. data users and
industry groups, and undertaking extensive discussions with Statistics Canada and Mexico's
Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía (INEGI), the ECPC formulated a set of
recommendations for revisions to NAICS for 2017. OMB published a solicitation of public
comments on these recommendations in an August 4, 2015, Federal Register notice (80 FR 46480-
46484). After reviewing comments to that notice and conducting further consultation with data
users and industry groups, OMB decided to adopt the ECPC recommendations presented in the
August 4, 2015, notice. OMB published a notice of final decisions regarding NAICS revisions for
2017 in an August 8, 2016, Federal Register notice (81 FR 52584).
Conceptual Framework
NAICS is erected on a production-oriented or supply-based conceptual framework that groups
establishments into industries according to similarity in the processes used to produce goods or
services. A production-oriented industry classification system ensures that statistical agencies in
the three countries can produce information on inputs and outputs, industrial performance,
productivity, unit labor costs, employment, and other statistics and structural changes occurring
in each of the three economies.
When an industry is defined on a production-oriented concept, producing units within the
16 NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
census.gov/naics
industry's boundaries share a basic production process; they use closely similar technology. In
the language of economics, producing units within an industry share the same production
functions; producing units in different industries have different production functions. The
boundaries between industries thus demarcate, in principle, differences in production processes
and production technologies.
The reasoning behind the three countries' decision to base NAICS on a production-oriented
concept is summarized as follows: An industry is a grouping of economic activities. Though it
inevitably groups the products of the economic activities that are included in the industry
definition, it is not solely a grouping of products; put another way, an industry groups producing
units. Accordingly, an industry classification system provides a framework for collecting data on
inputs and outputs together.
The uses of economic data that require that data on inputs and outputs be used together and be
collected on the same basis include production analyses, productivity measurement, and studying
input usage and input intensities. The North American statistical agencies developed NAICS
using a production-oriented concept as the framework for two reasons: (1) an industry
classification system groups producing units, not products or services; and (2) groupings of
producing units permit the collection of data on inputs and outputs on a comparable basis, which
is required for production-oriented analysis, but do not facilitate a comprehensive collection of
data on the total output of any particular good or service, which is required for market-oriented
analysis. Thus, the efficient organizing concept of an industry classification system is
production-oriented rather than market-oriented.
Structure of NAICS
The structure of NAICS is hierarchical. The first two digits of the structure designate the
NAICS sectors that represent general categories of economic activities.
NAICS classifies all economic activities into 20 sectors. The NAICS sectors, their two-digit
codes, and the distinguishing activities of each are:
11 Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and HuntingActivities of this sector are growing crops,
raising animals, harvesting timber, and harvesting fish and other animals from farms, ranches, or
the animals' natural habitats.

NAICS uses a six-digit coding system to identify particular industries and their placement in
this hierarchical structure of the classification system. The first two digits of the code designate
the sector, the third digit designates the subsector, the fourth digit designates the industry group,
the fifth digit designates the NAICS industry, and the sixth digit designates the national industry.
A zero as the sixth digit generally indicates that the NAICS industry and the U.S. industry are the
same.
The subsectors, industry groups, and NAICS industries, in accord with the conceptual
principle of NAICS, are production-oriented combinations of establishments. However, the
production distinctions become more narrowly defined as one moves down the hierarchy.
NAICS agreements permit each country to designate detailed industries, below the level of a
NAICS industry, to meet national needs. The United States has such industry detail in many
places in the classification system to recognize large, important U.S. industries that cannot be
recognized in the other countries because of size, specialization, or organization of the industry.
Typically the level at which comparable data will be available for Canada, Mexico, and the
United States is the five-digit NAICS industry; for some sectors (or subsectors or industry
groups) however, the three countries agreed upon the boundaries at a higher level of detail rather
than the detailed industry structure (five-digit). There is agreement at the sector level for
Wholesale Trade; Retail Trade; and Public Administration. There is agreement either at the
industry group (four-digit) or subsector (three-digit) level for one of the three subsectors in the
Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction sector, one of the three industry groups in the
Utilities sector, one of the ten industry groups in the Construction sector, two of the four
subsectors in the Finance and Insurance sector, one of the three industry groups in the Real
Estate subsector, and two of the four subsectors in the Other Services (except Public
Administration) sector.
Differences in the economies of the three countries or time constraints necessitated
establishing comparability at a higher level of detail for the sectors and subsectors noted above.
For each of these sectors, except Wholesale Trade and Public Administration, Canada and the
United States have agreed upon an industry structure and hierarchy to ensure comparability of
statistics between those two countries. Canada and the United States also have established the
INTRODUCTION 19
census.gov/naics
same national detail (six-digit) industries where possible, adopting the same codes to describe
comparable industries. For this reason, the numbers of the U.S. industries may not be
consecutive. In a few cases, it was necessary for the United States to use all of the numbers
available to establish its six-digit detail so that the same six-digit codes do not necessarily
represent comparable industries in the U.S. and Canada.
NAICS with U.S. detail is known as NAICS United States, while Canada and Mexico
produce six-digit detail and publish that detail as NAICS Canada and NAICS (SCIAN in
Spanish) Mexico.
Definition of an Establishment
NAICS is a classification system for establishments. The establishment as a statistical unit is
defined as the smallest operating entity for which records provide information on the cost of
resourcesmaterials, labor, and capitalemployed to produce the units of output. The output
may be sold to other establishments and receipts or sales recorded, or the output may be provided
without explicit charge, that is, the good or service may be ''sold'' within the company itself.
The establishment, in NAICS United States, is generally a single physical location where
business is conducted or where services or industrial operations are performed (for example, a
factory, mill, store, hotel, movie theater, mine, farm, airline terminal, sales office, warehouse, or
central administrative office). There are cases where records identify distinct and separate
economic activities performed at a single physical location (e.g., shops in a hotel). These
retailing activities, operated out of the same physical location as the hotel, are identified as
separate establishments and classified in the Retail Trade sector, while the hotel is classified in
the Accommodation subsector. In such cases, each activity is treated as a separate establishment
provided: (1) no one industry description in the classification includes such combined activities;
(2) separate reports can be prepared on the number of employees, their wages and salaries, sales
or receipts, and expenses; and (3) employment and output are significant for both activities.
Exceptions to the single location exist for physically dispersed operations, such as
construction, transportation, and telecommunications. For these activities the individual sites,
projects, fields, networks, lines, or systems of such dispersed activities are not normally
considered to be establishments. The establishment is represented by those relatively permanent
main or branch offices, terminals, stations, and so forth, that are either (1) directly responsible
for supervising such activities, or (2) the base from which personnel operate to carry out these
activities.
Although an establishment may be identical with the enterprise (company), the two terms
should not be confused. An enterprise (company) may consist of more than one establishment.
Such multiunit enterprises may have establishments in more than one industry in NAICS. If such
enterprises have a separate establishment primarily engaged in providing headquarters services,
these establishments are classified in Sector 55, Management of Companies and Enterprises.
Although all establishments have output, they may or may not have receipts. In large
enterprises, it is not unusual for establishments to exist to solely serve other establishments of the
same enterprise (auxiliary, or enterprise support, establishments). In such cases, these units often
do not collect receipts from the establishments they serve. This type of support (captive) activity
is found throughout the economy and involves goods-producing activities as well as services.
Units that carry out support activities for the enterprise to which they belong are classified, to the
20 NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
census.gov/naics
extent feasible, according to the NAICS code related to their own activity. This means that
warehouses providing storage facilities for their own enterprise are classified as warehouses.
For certain analytical purposes, an alternative code may be assigned corresponding to the activity
of the enterprise that they support.
Determining an Establishment’s Industry Classification
An establishment is classified in an industry when its primary activity meets the definition for
that industry. Because establishments may perform more than one activity, it is necessary to
determine procedures for identifying the primary activity of the establishment.
In most cases, if an establishment is engaged in more than one activity, the industry code is
assigned based on the establishment's principal product or group of products produced or
distributed, or services rendered. Ideally, the principal good or service should be determined by
its relative share of current production costs and capital investment at the establishment. In
practice, however, it is often necessary to use other variables such as revenue, shipments, or
employment as proxies for measuring significance.
There are two types of combined activities that are given special attention in NAICS. They
are vertical integration and joint production. These combined activities have an economic basis
and occur in both goods-producing and services-producing sectors. In some cases, there are
efficiencies to be gained from combining certain activities in the same establishment. Some of
these combinations occur so commonly or frequently that their combination can be treated as a
third activity in its own right and explicitly classified in a specific industry.
One approach to classifying these activities would be to use the primary activity rule, that is,
whichever activity is largest. However, the fundamental principle of NAICS is that
establishments that employ the same production process should be classified in the same
industry. If the premise that the combined activities correspond to a distinct third activity is
accepted, then using the primary activity rule would place establishments performing the same
combination of activities in different industries, thereby violating the production principle of
NAICS. A second reason for NAICS recognizing combined activities is to improve the stability
of establishment classification, both over time and among the various agencies that implement
the classification. An establishment should remain classified in the same industry unless its
production process changes, and different agencies should code the same establishment or type
of establishment in the same way. A consistent treatment of establishments with combined
activities is more likely if they are classified to a single industry.
Vertical integration involves consecutive stages of fabrication or production processes in
which the output of one step is the input of the next. In general, establishments are classified
based on the final process in a vertically integrated production environment, unless specifically
identified as classified in another industry. For example, paper may be produced either by
establishments that first produce pulp and then consume that pulp to produce paper or by those
establishments producing paper from purchased pulp. NAICS explicitly specifies that both of
these types of paper-producing processes should be classified in NAICS 32212, Paper Mills, the
final step in paper manufacturing, rather than in NAICS 32211, Pulp Mills. In other cases,
NAICS specifies that vertically integrated establishments are classified in the industry
representing the first stage of the manufacturing process. For example, steel mills that make steel
and also perform other activities such as producing steel castings are classified in NAICS 33111,
INTRODUCTION 21
census.gov/naics
Iron and Steel Mills and Ferroalloy Manufacturing, the first stage of the manufacturing process.
The joint production of goods or services represents the second type of combined activities.
For example, automobile dealers both sell and repair autos; automotive parts dealers may both
sell parts and repair automobiles; and musical instrument stores may both sell and rent
instruments. In the Manufacturing sector, establishments may make two different products such
as men’s suits and women's suits, activities that are classified in two different NAICS United
States detailed industries. In general, receipts/sales and revenue data are used as a proxy to
determine primary activity for these establishments. The assumption is that the activity
generating the most receipts is also the activity using the most resources and most indicative of
the production process.
In some cases, however, these combined activities have been assigned to a specific NAICS
industry. Most of these activities involve either the sale and repair of goods or the sale and rental
of goods in the same establishment. For example, establishments that both sell automobile parts
and repair automobiles are classified in NAICS 44131, Automotive Parts and Accessories Stores,
and music stores that both sell and rent musical instruments are classified in NAICS 45114,
Musical Instrument and Supplies Stores. In other cases, specific industries are identified for these
combined activities, such as NAICS 44711, Gasoline Stations with Convenience Stores.
Classification rules related to the agreement to permit individual country detail at the six-digit
level for NAICS sometimes result in less comparable NAICS industries at the five-digit level and
above. For example in NAICS, the assignment of the industry code is at the most detailed level
of the classification (the six-digit U.S. detail code), except for Agriculture. That is, if the value of
an establishment's production consists of 30 percent from computers, 30 percent from computer
storage devices, and 40 percent from semiconductors and related devices, it is classified in U.S.
detail industry 334413, Semiconductor and Related Device Manufacturing, that is aggregated to
NAICS 33441, Semiconductor and Other Electronic Component Manufacturing, the level that
comparable information is shown for all three countries. If the classification for the above
example were at the five-digit NAICS level, that establishment would be classified in NAICS
33411, Computer and Peripheral Equipment Manufacturing. There would then be more
comparable information at the NAICS level, but it would be impossible to classify this
establishment to a U.S. detail six-digit industry.
In Agriculture, however, NAICS coding begins at the top of the structure and continues down
to the most detailed level (the six-digit U.S. detail code). The existence of a 50 percent rule in
Agriculture and the presence of combination industries based on families of related agricultural
products with none accounting for 50 percent or more of production require a top down coding
procedure rather than coding at the most detailed level first as is done in the balance of the
classification.
Use of Reporting Units Other than Establishments
NAICS is based on the economic principle that establishments should be grouped together
based on their production processes. The NAICS definition of the establishment ensures that, at
some level, “establishments”: (1) identify the most refined (generally smallest) individual entity
possible; (2) can provide the information needed when surveying economic activity; and (3)
when aggregated, approximate the statistical universe of economic activity. Each economic
survey program, in practice, determines whether the establishment is the most appropriate
22 NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
census.gov/naics
reporting unit to meet the three criteria listed above with respect to the program’s objectives. If
not, an alternative reporting unit is identified.
For example, an economic survey of employment or wage data may choose the
establishmentgenerally a physical locationas the reporting unit. Physical locations generally
have records for the number of employees and their wages readily available. Therefore, it is
reasonable to expect that separate wage and employment data are available for each switching
station in a multiunit telecommunications carrier enterprise and the physical location is a logical
choice for the reporting unit.
If the economic survey collects output data, the individual switching stations would not have the
total number of telephone calls or a complete accounting of inputs and outputs of the multiunit
telecommunications carrier. If a telephone call is routed through three different switching stations
and the price is determined at a fourth location, all of the related locations would need to be merged
into an alternative reporting unit to measure the volume and value of the output. In this case, the
physical location is not an appropriate reporting unit. The level of aggregation of physical units
required to create reporting units will vary greatly depending on the business activity being studied.
To efficiently define reporting units, statistical surveys need to evaluate the characteristics of the
activities being studied and the organizational structure of the entities producing goods or services.
In some cases, the physical location is appropriate, sometimes units will need to be grouped based
on homogeneous production characteristics or geographical groupings, and in other cases, the
enterprise (company) may form the most appropriate reporting unit.
The practical variation in reporting unit definitions affects comparability of data. A count of
units defined as physical locations will be different from a count of units defined based on the
need for complete input and output records in the telecommunications industries. It is critical
that each data provider clearly identify the reporting unit definition used when presenting
summary statistics. The analysis of statistical data from a variety of sources requires the
transparency of clearly defined reporting units.
While the reporting unit definition can vary, NAICS is a classification system for
establishments and is based on grouping establishments with similar production function
characteristics.
Comparison of NAICS to the International Standard Industrial Classification of All
Economic Activities (ISIC)
Recognizing the need for international comparability of economic statistics, the United
Nations (UN) first adopted an International Standard Industrial Classification system in 1948.
Revisions to the ISIC structure and codes were adopted by the UN's Statistical Commission in
1958, 1968, 1989, 2002, and 2007.
2
Similar to NAICS, ISIC was designed primarily to provide classifications for grouping activities
(rather than enterprises or firms), and the primary focus for the ISIC classification system is the kind
of activity in which establishments or other statistical entities are engaged. The main criteria
employed in delineating divisions and groups (the two- and three-digit categories, respectively) of
ISIC are: (a) the character of the goods and services produced; (b) the uses to which the goods and
services are put; and (c) the inputs, the process, and the technology of production.

INTRODUCTION 23
census.gov/naics
The third classification criterion of the ISIC is the conceptual foundation of NAICS, and thus,
NAICS is aligned more closely with ISIC than was the 1987 SIC system. However, there are
differences between the NAICS and ISIC classification schemes. Most important, perhaps, is the
single (production process) conceptual framework of NAICS. As noted elsewhere, this is unique
among industry classifications.
ISIC, Rev. 4, groups economic activity into 21 broad Sections, 88 Divisions, 238 Groups, and
420 Classes. In the coding system, Sections are distinguished by the letters A through U, and the
Divisions, Groups, and Classes are identified as the two-digit, three-digit, and four-digit
groupings, respectively. As was the case with 2007 NAICS, the most recent revision of ISIC also
focused on improvements to the detail in services sections.
In the development and subsequent revision of NAICS industries, the statistical agencies of
the three countries strove to create industries that did not cross ISIC two-digit boundaries. The
2007 revisions of the NAICS and ISIC increased comparability beyond previous levels. Similar
to the 2012 NAICS revision, this 2017 NAICS revision maintains a similar level of
comparability with ISIC, Rev. 4.

Frequently Asked Questions About Economic Classifications
1. What is the purpose of an industry classification system?
An industry classification system facilitates the collection, tabulation, presentation, and
analysis of data relating to establishments and ensures that data about the U.S. economy
published by U.S. statistical agencies are uniform and comparable. NAICS ensures that such
data are uniform and comparable among Canada, Mexico, and the United States.
2. What is an establishment?
An establishment is generally a single, physical location at which economic activity occurs
(e.g., store, factory, farm, etc.). An enterprise consists of one or more locations that are more
than 50 percent owned by the same entity performing the same or different types of
economic activities. Each establishment of that enterprise is assigned a NAICS code, based
on its own primary activity.
3. How can I determine the correct NAICS code for my business?
To determine the correct NAICS code for your establishment, first identify the primary
business activity. Then refer either to: 1) the NAICS United States Structure near the
beginning of the manual to search the titles from the 2-digit level down through the 6-digit,
more detailed level, to find the appropriate code; or 2) the Alphabetic Index at the back of
the book to search alphabetically for the primary activity and its corresponding code. Next,
turn to the industry description of the specified code in Part I of the manual, read the full
description of the industry (including the narrative, cross-references, and illustrative
examples), and determine if that description fits the activities of your establishment.
Electronic references are available at census.gov/naics.
4. Who assigns NAICS codes to businesses and how?
There is no central government agency with the role of assigning, monitoring, or
approving NAICS codes for establishments. Different agencies maintain their own lists of
business establishments to meet their own programmatic needs. These different agencies
use their own methods for assigning NAICS codes to the establishments on their lists.
Statistical agencies assign one NAICS code to each establishment based on its primary
activity. For example, the Social Security Administration assigns a NAICS code to new
businesses based on information provided on their application for an Employer
Identification Number. The Census Bureau generally assigns NAICS codes to businesses
on its list of establishments based on information provided by the business on a survey or
census report form. The Bureau of Labor Statistics initially assigns NAICS codes based
on business activity information provided on an application for unemployment insurance.
5. How do I apply for a NAICS code?
A business does not ‘applyfor a NAICS code. As explained above, statistical agencies
generally assign NAICS codes based on information provided by a business on an
application form, an administrative report, or on a survey or census report form.
78 NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
census.gov/naics
6. How can I get a new NAICS code created for my type of business?
Every five years NAICS is reviewed for potential revisions, so that the classification
system can keep pace with the changing economy. This is the only time that new NAICS
codes can be considered. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), through its
Economic Classification Policy Committee (ECPC), will solicit public comments
regarding changes to NAICS through a notice published in the Federal Register. The
notice will provide details of the format in which comments should be submitted, how
and to whom they should be submitted, and the deadline for submission. Generally, the
comment period will close 90 days after publication of the notice. During that time,
suggestions for new and emerging industries can be submitted to the ECPC. The next
scheduled review of NAICS will be for a potential 2022 revision.
7. What is the relationship between NAICS and the Small Business Administration's (SBA) size
standards?
NAICS categories do not distinguish between small and large business, or between for-
profit and non-profit. The Small Business Administration (SBA) develops size standards
for each NAICS category. To find more information about the SBA size standards, or
when the SBA will update their size standards to reflect 2017 NAICS revisions, visit the
SBA Web site at www.sba.gov/size/indexsize.html. You may also contact SBA's Office
of Size Standards on 202-205-6618 or via email to sizestandards@sba.gov.
8. How do the NAICS codes affect federal procurement and regulatory activities, such as those
carried out by the Environmental Protection Agency, OSHA, the Department of Defense, and
the General Services Administration?
NAICS was developed specifically for the collection and publication of statistical data to
foster the comparability of economic estimates for Canada, Mexico, and the United
States. The NAICS categories and definitions were not developed to meet the needs of
procurement and/or regulatory applications. However, other federal agencies and other
organizations have adopted NAICS for procurement and regulatory purposes even though
it does not entirely fit their specific needs. For questions regarding these agencies' use of
the NAICS system, contact the specific agency.
For answers to other NAICS questions, you may visit the NAICS Web site at census.gov/naics.

Sector 11--Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and HuntingT
The Sector as a Whole
The Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting sector comprises establishments primarily engaged in growing
crops, raising animals, harvesting timber, and harvesting fish and other animals from a farm, ranch, or their natural
habitats.
The establishments in this sector are often described as farms, ranches, dairies, greenhouses, nurseries, orchards,
or hatcheries. A farm may consist of a single tract of land or a number of separate tracts which may be held under
different tenures. For example, one tract may be owned by the farm operator and another rented. It may be operated
by the operator alone or with the assistance of members of the household or hired employees, or it may be operated
by a partnership, corporation, or other type of organization. When a landowner has one or more tenants, renters,
croppers, or managers, the land operated by each is considered a farm.
The sector distinguishes two basic activities: agricultural production and agricultural support activities.
Agricultural production includes establishments performing the complete farm or ranch operation, such as farm
owner-operators and tenant farm operators. Agricultural support activities include establishments that perform one
or more activities associated with farm operation, such as soil preparation, planting, harvesting, and management, on
a contract or fee basis.
Excluded from the Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting sector are establishments primarily engaged in
agricultural research and establishments primarily engaged in administering programs for regulating and conserving
land, mineral, wildlife, and forest use. These establishments are classified in Industry 54171, Research and
Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences; and Industry 92412, Administration of Conservation
Programs, respectively.
111 Crop ProductionT
Industries in the Crop Production subsector grow crops mainly for food and fiber. The subsector comprises
establishments, such as farms, orchards, groves, greenhouses, and nurseries, primarily engaged in growing crops,
plants, vines, or trees and their seeds.
The industries in this subsector are grouped by similarity of production activity, including biological and
physiological characteristics and economic requirements, the length of growing season, degree of crop rotation,
extent of input specialization, labor requirements, and capital demands. The production process is typically
completed when the raw product or commodity grown reaches the "farm gate" for market, that is, at the point of first
sale or price determination.
Establishments are classified in the Crop Production subsector when crop production (i.e., value of crops for
market) accounts for one-half or more of the establishment's total agricultural production. Within the subsector,
establishments are classified in a specific industry when a product or industry family of products (i.e., oilseed and
grain farming, vegetable and melon farming, fruit and tree nut farming) account for one-half or more of the
establishment's agricultural production. Establishments with one-half or more crop production with no one product
or family of products of an industry accounting for one-half of the establishment's agricultural production are treated
as general combination crop farming and are classified in Industry 11199, All Other Crop Farming.
Industries in the Crop Production subsector include establishments that own, operate, and manage and those that
operate and manage. Those that manage only are classified in Subsector 115, Support Activities for Agriculture and
Forestry. Establishments that raise aquatic plants in controlled or selected aquatic environments are classified in
Subsector 112, Animal Production and Aquaculture.
1111 Oilseed and Grain FarmingT
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in (1) growing oilseed and/or grain crops and/or
(2) producing oilseed and grain seeds. These crops have an annual life cycle and are typically grown in open fields.

113 Forestry and LoggingT
Industries in the Forestry and Logging subsector grow and harvest timber on a long production cycle (i.e., of 10
years or more). Long production cycles use different production processes than short production cycles, which
require more horticultural interventions prior to harvest, resulting in processes more similar to those found in the
Crop Production subsector. Consequently, Christmas tree production and other production involving production
cycles of less than 10 years, are classified in the Crop Production subsector.
Industries in this subsector specialize in different stages of the production cycle. Reforestation requires production
of seedlings in specialized nurseries. Timber production requires natural forest or suitable areas of land that are
available for a long duration. The maturation time for timber depends upon the species of tree, the climatic
conditions of the region, and the intended purpose of the timber. The harvesting of timber (except when done on an
extremely small scale) requires specialized machinery unique to the industry. Establishments gathering forest
products, such as gums, barks, balsam needles, rhizomes, fibers, Spanish moss, and ginseng and truffles, are also
included in this subsector.

114 Fishing, Hunting and TrappingT
Industries in the Fishing, Hunting and Trapping subsector harvest fish and other wild animals from their natural
habitats and are dependent upon a continued supply of the natural resource. The harvesting of fish is the
predominant economic activity of this subsector and it usually requires specialized vessels that, by the nature of their
size, configuration and equipment, are not suitable for any other type of production, such as transportation.
Hunting and trapping activities utilize a wide variety of production processes and are classified in the same
subsector as fishing because the availability of resources and the constraints imposed, such as conservation
requirements and proper habitat maintenance, are similar.

Sector 21--Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas ExtractionT
The Sector as a Whole
The Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction sector comprises establishments that extract naturally
occurring mineral solids, such as coal and ores; liquid minerals, such as crude petroleum; and gases, such as natural
gas. The term mining is used in the broad sense to include quarrying, well operations, beneficiating (e.g., crushing,
screening, washing, and flotation), and other preparation customarily performed at the mine site, or as a part of
mining activity.
The Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction sector distinguishes two basic activities: mine operation and
mining support activities. Mine operation includes establishments operating mines, quarries, or oil and gas wells on
their own account or for others on a contract or fee basis. Mining support activities include establishments that
perform exploration (except geophysical surveying) and/or other mining services on a contract or fee basis (except
mine site preparation and construction of oil/gas pipelines).
Establishments in the Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction sector are grouped and classified according
to the natural resource mined or to be mined. Industries include establishments that develop the mine site, extract
the natural resources, and/or those that beneficiate (i.e., prepare) the mineral mined. Beneficiation is the process
whereby the extracted material is reduced to particles that can be separated into mineral and waste, the former
suitable for further processing or direct use. The operations that take place in beneficiation are primarily
mechanical, such as grinding, washing, magnetic separation, and centrifugal separation. In contrast, manufacturing
operations primarily use chemical and electrochemical processes, such as electrolysis and distillation. However,
some treatments, such as heat treatments, take place in both the beneficiation and the manufacturing (i.e.,
smelting/refining) stages. The range of preparation activities varies by mineral and the purity of any given ore
deposit. While some minerals, such as petroleum and natural gas, require little or no preparation, others are washed
and screened, while yet others, such as gold and silver, can be transformed into bullion before leaving the mine site.
Mining, beneficiating, and manufacturing activities often occur in a single location. Separate receipts will be
collected for these activities whenever possible. When receipts cannot be broken out between mining and
manufacturing, establishments that mine or quarry nonmetallic minerals, and then beneficiate the nonmetallic
minerals into more finished manufactured products are classified based on the primary activity of the establishment.
A mine that manufactures a small amount of finished products will be classified in Sector 21, Mining, Quarrying,
and Oil and Gas Extraction. An establishment that mines whose primary output is a more finished manufactured
product will be classified in Sector 31-33, Manufacturing.
211 Oil and Gas ExtractionT
Industries in the Oil and Gas Extraction subsector operate and/or develop oil and gas field properties. Such
activities may include exploration for crude petroleum and natural gas; drilling, completing, and equipping wells;
operating separators, emulsion breakers, desilting equipment, and field gathering lines for crude petroleum and
natural gas; and all other activities in the preparation of oil and gas up to the point of shipment from the producing
property. This subsector includes the production of crude petroleum, the mining and extraction of oil from oil shale
and oil sands, the production of natural gas, sulfur recovery from natural gas, and recovery of hydrocarbon liquids.
Establishments in this subsector include those that operate oil and gas wells on their own account or for others on a
contract or fee basis. Establishments primarily engaged in providing support services, on a contract or fee basis,
required for the drilling or operation of oil and gas wells (except geophysical surveying and mapping, mine site
preparation, and construction of oil/gas pipelines) are classified in Subsector 213, Support Activities for Mining.

212 Mining (except Oil and Gas)T
Industries in the Mining (except Oil and Gas) subsector primarily engage in mining, mine site development, and
beneficiating (i.e., preparing) metallic minerals and nonmetallic minerals, including coal. The term "mining" is used
in the broad sense to include ore extraction, quarrying, and beneficiating (e.g., crushing, screening, washing, sizing,
concentrating, and flotation), customarily done at the mine site.
Beneficiation is the process whereby the extracted material is reduced to particles which can be separated into
mineral and waste, the former suitable for further processing or direct use. The operations that take place in
beneficiation are primarily mechanical, such as grinding, washing, magnetic separation, centrifugal separation, and
so on. In contrast, manufacturing operations primarily use chemical and electrochemical processes, such as
electrolysis, distillation, and so on. However some treatments, such as heat treatments, take place in both stages: the
beneficiation and the manufacturing (i.e., smelting/refining) stages. The range of preparation activities varies by

plants primarily engaged in beneficiating (e.g., crushing, grinding, washing, and concentrating) nonmetallic
minerals.
Beneficiation is the process whereby the extracted material is reduced to particles which can be separated into
mineral and waste, the former suitable for further processing or direct use. The operations that take place in
beneficiation are primarily mechanical, such as grinding, washing, magnetic separation, and centrifugal separation.
In contrast, manufacturing operations primarily use chemical and electrochemical processes, such as electrolysis and
distillation. However, some treatments, such as heat treatments, take place in both the beneficiation and the
manufacturing (i.e., smelting/refining) stages. The range of preparation activities varies by mineral and the purity of
any given ore deposit. While some minerals, such as petroleum and natural gas, require little or no preparation,
others are washed and screened, while yet others, such as gold and silver, can be transformed into bullion before
leaving the mine site.

Sector 23--ConstructionT
The Sector as a Whole
The Construction sector comprises establishments primarily engaged in the construction of buildings or
engineering projects (e.g., highways and utility systems). Establishments primarily engaged in the preparation of
sites for new construction and establishments primarily engaged in subdividing land for sale as building sites also
are included in this sector.
Construction work done may include new work, additions, alterations, or maintenance and repairs. Activities of
these establishments generally are managed at a fixed place of business, but they usually perform construction
activities at multiple project sites. Production responsibilities for establishments in this sector are usually specified
in (1) contracts with the owners of construction projects (prime contracts) or (2) contracts with other construction
establishments (subcontracts).
Establishments primarily engaged in contracts that include responsibility for all aspects of individual construction
projects are commonly known as general contractors, but also may be known as design-builders, construction
managers, turnkey contractors, or (in cases where two or more establishments jointly secure a general contract)
joint-venture contractors. Construction managers that provide oversight and scheduling only (i.e., agency) as well as
construction managers that are responsible for the entire project (i.e., at risk) are included as general contractor type
establishments. Establishments of the "general contractor type" frequently arrange construction of separate parts of
their projects through subcontracts with other construction establishments.
Establishments primarily engaged in activities to produce a specific component (e.g., masonry, painting, and
electrical work) of a construction project are commonly known as specialty trade contractors. Activities of specialty
trade contractors are usually subcontracted from other construction establishments, but especially in remodeling and
repair construction, the work may be done directly for the owner of the property.
Establishments primarily engaged in activities to construct buildings to be sold on sites that they own are known as
for-sale builders, but also may be known as speculative builders or merchant builders. For-sale builders produce
buildings in a manner similar to general contractors, but their production processes also include site acquisition and
securing of financial backing. For-sale builders are most often associated with the construction of residential
buildings. Like general contractors, they may subcontract all or part of the actual construction work on their
buildings.
There are substantial differences in the types of equipment, work force skills, and other inputs required by
establishments in this sector. To highlight these differences and variations in the underlying production functions,
this sector is divided into three subsectors.
Subsector 236, Construction of Buildings, comprises establishments of the general contractor type and for-sale
builders involved in the construction of buildings. Subsector 237, Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction,
comprises establishments involved in the construction of engineering projects. Subsector 238, Specialty Trade
Contractors, comprises establishments engaged in specialty trade activities generally needed in the construction of
all types of buildings.
Force account construction is construction work performed by an enterprise primarily engaged in some business
other than construction for its own account, using employees of the enterprise. This activity is not included in the
construction sector unless the construction work performed is the primary activity of a separate establishment of the
enterprise. The installation and the ongoing repair and maintenance of telecommunications and utility networks is
excluded from construction when the establishments performing the work are not independent contractors.
Although a growing proportion of this work is subcontracted to independent contractors in the Construction sector,
the operating units of telecommunications and utility companies performing this work are included with the
telecommunications or utility activities.
236 Construction of BuildingsT
The Construction of Buildings subsector comprises establishments primarily responsible for the construction of
buildings. The work performed may include new work, additions, alterations, or maintenance and repairs. The on-
site assembly of precut, panelized, and prefabricated buildings and construction of temporary buildings are included
in this subsector. Part or all of the production work for which the establishments in this subsector have
responsibility may be subcontracted to other construction establishments--usually specialty trade contractors.

238 Specialty Trade ContractorsT
The Specialty Trade Contractors subsector comprises establishments whose primary activity is performing specific
activities (e.g., pouring concrete, site preparation, plumbing, painting, and electrical work) involved in building
construction or other activities that are similar for all types of construction, but that are not responsible for the entire
project. The work performed may include new work, additions, alterations, maintenance, and repairs. The
production work performed by establishments in this subsector is usually subcontracted from establishments of the
general contractor type or for-sale builders, but especially in remodeling and repair construction, work also may be
done directly for the owner of the property. Specialty trade contractors usually perform most of their work at the
construction site, although they may have shops where they perform prefabrication and other work. Establishments
primarily engaged in preparing sites for new construction are also included in this subsector.
There are substantial differences in types of equipment, work force skills, and other inputs required by specialty
trade contractors. Establishments in this subsector are classified based on the underlying production function for the
specialty trade in which they specialize. Throughout the Specialty Trade Contractors subsector, establishments
commonly provide both the parts and labor required to complete work. For example, electrical contractors supply
the current-carrying and noncurrent-carrying wiring devices that are required to install a circuit. Plumbing, heating,
and air-conditioning contractors also supply the parts required to complete a contract.
Establishments that specialize in activities primarily related to heavy and civil engineering construction that are
not normally performed on buildings, such as the painting of lines on highways, are classified in Subsector 237,
Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction.
Establishments that are primarily engaged in selling construction materials are classified in Sector 42, Wholesale
Trade, or Sector 44-45, Retail Trade, based on the characteristics of the selling unit.

Sector 31-33--ManufacturingT
The Sector as a Whole
The Manufacturing sector comprises establishments engaged in the mechanical, physical, or chemical
transformation of materials, substances, or components into new products. The assembling of component parts of
manufactured products is considered manufacturing, except in cases where the activity is appropriately classified in
Sector 23, Construction.
Establishments in the Manufacturing sector are often described as plants, factories, or mills and characteristically
use power-driven machines and material handling equipment. However, establishments that transform materials or
substances into new products by hand or in the worker's home and those engaged in selling to the general public
products made on the same premises from which they are sold, such as bakeries, candy stores, and custom tailors,
may also be included in this sector. Manufacturing establishments may process materials or may contract with other
establishments to process their materials for them. Both types of establishments are included in manufacturing.
The materials, substances, or components transformed by manufacturing establishments are raw materials that are
products of agriculture, forestry, fishing, mining, or quarrying as well as products of other manufacturing
establishments. The materials used may be purchased directly from producers, obtained through customary trade
channels, or secured without recourse to the market by transferring the product from one establishment to another,
under the same ownership.
The new product of a manufacturing establishment may be finished in the sense that it is ready for utilization or
consumption, or it may be semi-finished to become an input for an establishment engaged in further manufacturing.
For example, the product of the alumina refinery is the input used in the primary production of aluminum; primary
aluminum is the input to an aluminum wire drawing plant; and aluminum wire is the input for a fabricated wire
product manufacturing establishment.
The subsectors in the Manufacturing sector generally reflect distinct production processes related to material
inputs, production equipment, and employee skills. In the machinery area, where assembling is a key activity, parts
and accessories for manufactured products are classified in the industry of the finished manufactured item when they
are made for separate sale. For example, a replacement refrigerator door would be classified with refrigerators and
an attachment for a piece of metalworking machinery would be classified with metalworking machinery. However,
components, input from other manufacturing establishments, are classified based on the production function of the
component manufacturer. For example, electronic components are classified in Subsector 334, Computer and
Electronic Product Manufacturing, and stampings are classified in Subsector 332, Fabricated Metal Product
Manufacturing.
Manufacturing establishments often perform one or more activities that are classified outside the Manufacturing
sector of NAICS. For instance, almost all manufacturing has some captive research and development or
administrative operations, such as accounting, payroll, or management. These captive services are treated the same
as captive manufacturing activities. When the services are provided by separate establishments, they are classified
in the NAICS sector where such services are primary, not in manufacturing.
The boundaries of manufacturing and the other sectors of the classification system can be somewhat blurry. The
establishments in the Manufacturing sector are engaged in the transformation of materials into new products. Their
output is a new product. However, the definition of what constitutes a new product can be somewhat subjective. As
clarification, the following activities are considered manufacturing in NAICS:
Milk bottling and pasteurizing;
Water bottling and processing;
Fresh fish packaging (oyster shucking, fish filleting);
Apparel jobbing (assigning materials to contract
factories or shops for fabrication or other contract
operations) as well as contracting on materials owned
by others;
Printing and related activities;
Ready-mix concrete production;
Leather converting;
Grinding lenses to prescription;
Wood preserving;
Electroplating, plating, metal heat treating, and
polishing for the trade;
Lapidary work for the trade;
Fabricating signs and advertising displays;
Rebuilding or remanufacturing machinery (i.e.,
automotive parts);
Ship repair and renovation;
Machine shops; and
Tire retreading.

Conversely, there are activities that are sometimes considered manufacturing, but which for NAICS are classified
in another sector (i.e., not classified as manufacturing). They include:
1. Logging, classified in Sector 11, Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting, is considered a harvesting
operation;
2. Beneficiating ores and other minerals, classified in Sector 21, Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction, is
considered part of the activity of mining;
3. Constructing structures and fabricating at the construction site by contractors are classified in Sector 23,
Construction;
4. Breaking bulk and redistributing in smaller lots, including packaging, repackaging, or bottling products, such as
liquors or chemicals; assembling computers on a custom basis; sorting scrap; mixing paints to customer order; and
cutting metals to customer order, classified in Sector 42, Wholesale Trade, or Sector 44-45, Retail Trade, produce a
modified version of the same product, not a new product; and
5. Publishing and the combined activity of publishing and printing, classified in Sector 51, Information, transform
information into a product for which the value to the consumer lies in the information content, not in the format in
which it is distributed (i.e., the book or software compact disc).
311 Food ManufacturingT

312 Beverage and Tobacco Product ManufacturingT
Industries in the Beverage and Tobacco Product Manufacturing subsector manufacture beverages and tobacco
products. The Beverage Manufacturing industry group includes three types of establishments: (1) those that
manufacture nonalcoholic beverages; (2) those that manufacture alcoholic beverages through the fermentation
process; and (3) those that produce distilled alcoholic beverages. Ice manufacturing, while not a beverage, is
included with nonalcoholic beverage manufacturing because it uses the same production process as water
purification.
In the case of activities related to the manufacture of beverages, the structure follows the defined production
processes. Brandy, a distilled beverage, is not placed under distillery product manufacturing, but rather under
winery product manufacturing since the production process used in the manufacturing of alcoholic grape-based
beverages produces both wines (fermented beverage) and brandies (distilled beverage).
The Tobacco Manufacturing industry group includes two types of establishments: (1) those engaged in redrying
and stemming tobacco and (2) those that manufacture tobacco products, such as cigarettes and cigars.
3121 Beverage ManufacturingT
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing soft drinks and ice; purifying
and bottling water; and manufacturing brewery, winery, and distillery products.
31211 Soft Drink and Ice ManufacturingT
This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in one or more of the following: (1) manufacturing soft
drinks; (2) manufacturing ice; and (3) purifying and bottling water.

313 Textile MillsT
Industries in the Textile Mills subsector group establishments that transform a basic fiber (natural or synthetic)
into a product, such as yarn or fabric that is further manufactured into usable items, such as apparel, sheets, towels,
and textile bags for individual or industrial consumption. The further manufacturing may be performed in the same
establishment and classified in this subsector, or it may be performed at a separate establishment and be classified
elsewhere in manufacturing.
The main processes in this subsector include preparation and spinning of fiber, knitting or weaving of fabric, and
the finishing of the textile. The NAICS structure follows and captures this process flow. Major industries in this
flow, such as preparation of fibers, weaving of fabric, knitting of fabric, and fiber and fabric finishing, are uniquely
identified. Texturizing, throwing, twisting, and winding of yarn contain aspects of both fiber preparation and fiber
finishing and are classified with preparation of fibers rather than with finishing of fibers.
NAICS separates the manufacturing of primary textiles and the manufacturing of textile products (except apparel)
produced from purchased primary textiles, such as fabric. The manufacturing of textile products (except apparel)
from purchased fabric is classified in Subsector 314, Textile Product Mills, and apparel from purchased fabric is
classified in Subsector 315, Apparel Manufacturing.
Excluded from this subsector are establishments that weave or knit fabric and make garments. These
establishments are included in Subsector 315, Apparel Manufacturing.

316 Leather and Allied Product ManufacturingT
Establishments in the Leather and Allied Product Manufacturing subsector transform hides into leather by tanning
or curing and fabricating the leather into products for final consumption. This subsector also includes the
manufacture of similar products from other materials, including products (except apparel) made from "leather
substitutes," such as rubber, plastics, or textiles. Rubber footwear, textile luggage, and plastics purses or wallets are
examples of "leather substitute" products included in this subsector. The products made from leather substitutes are
included in this subsector because they are made in similar ways leather products are made (e.g., luggage). They are
made in the same establishments, so it is not practical to separate them.
The inclusion of leather and hide tanning and finishing in this subsector is partly because it is a relatively small
industry that has few close neighbors as a production process, partly because leather is an input to some of the other
products classified in this subsector, and partly for historical reasons.

322 Paper ManufacturingT
Industries in the Paper Manufacturing subsector make pulp, paper, or converted paper products. The
manufacturing of these products is grouped together because they constitute a series of vertically connected
processes. More than one is often carried out in a single establishment. There are essentially three activities. The
manufacturing of pulp involves separating the cellulose fibers from other impurities in wood or used paper. The
manufacturing of paper involves matting these fibers into a sheet. The manufacturing of converted paper products
involves converting paper and other materials by various cutting and shaping techniques and includes coating and
laminating activities.
The Paper Manufacturing subsector is subdivided into two industry groups, the first for the manufacturing of pulp
and paper and the second for the manufacturing of converted paper products. Paper making is treated as the core
activity of the subsector. Therefore, any establishment that makes paper (including paperboard), either alone or in
combination with pulp manufacturing or paper converting, is classified as a paper or paperboard mill.
Establishments that make pulp without making paper are classified as pulp mills. Pulp mills, paper mills and
paperboard mills comprise the first industry group.
Establishments that make products from purchased paper and other materials make up the second industry group,
Converted Paper Product Manufacturing. This general activity is then subdivided based, for the most part, on
process distinctions. Paperboard container manufacturing uses corrugating, cutting, and shaping machinery to form
paperboard into containers. Paper bag and coated and treated paper manufacturing establishments cut and coat
paper and foil. Stationery product manufacturing establishments make a variety of paper products used for writing,
filing, and similar applications. Other converted paper product manufacturing includes, in particular, the conversion
of sanitary paper stock into such things as tissue paper and disposable diapers.
An important process used in the Paper Bag and Coated and Treated Paper Manufacturing industry is lamination,
often combined with coating. Lamination and coating make a composite material with improved properties of
strength, impermeability, and so on. The laminated materials may be paper, metal foil, or plastics film. While paper
is often one of the components, it is not always. Lamination of plastics film to plastics film is classified in Subsector
326, Plastics and Rubber Products Manufacturing, because establishments that do this often first make the film. The
same situation holds with respect to bags. The manufacturing of bags from plastics only, whether or not laminated,
is classified in Subsector 326, Plastics and Rubber Products Manufacturing, but all other bag manufacturing is
classified in this subsector.
Excluded from this subsector are photosensitive papers. These papers are chemically treated and are classified in
Industry 32599, All Other Chemical Product and Preparation Manufacturing.

323 Printing and Related Support ActivitiesT
Industries in the Printing and Related Support Activities subsector print products, such as newspapers, books,
labels, business cards, stationery, business forms, and other materials, and perform support activities, such as data
imaging, platemaking services, and bookbinding. The support activities included here are an integral part of the
printing industry, and a product (a printing plate, a bound book, or a computer disk or file) that is an integral part of
the printing industry is almost always provided by these operations.
Processes used in printing include a variety of methods used to transfer an image from a plate, screen, film, or
computer file to some medium, such as paper, plastics, metal, textile articles, or wood. The printing processes
employed include, but are not limited to, lithographic, gravure, screen, flexographic, digital, and letterpress.
In contrast to many other classification systems that locate publishing of printed materials in manufacturing,
NAICS classifies the publishing of printed products in Subsector 511, Publishing Industries (except Internet).
Though printing and publishing are often carried out by the same enterprise (a newspaper, for example), it is less
and less the case that these distinct activities are carried out in the same establishment. When publishing and

326 Plastics and Rubber Products ManufacturingT
Industries in the Plastics and Rubber Products Manufacturing subsector make goods by processing plastics
materials and raw rubber. The core technology employed by establishments in this subsector is that of plastics or
rubber product production. Plastics and rubber are combined in the same subsector because plastics are increasingly
being used as a substitute for rubber; however the subsector is generally restricted to the production of products
made of just one material, either solely plastics or rubber.
Many manufacturing activities use plastics or rubber, for example the manufacture of footwear or furniture.
Typically, the production process of these products involves more than one material. In these cases, technologies
that allow disparate materials to be formed and combined are of central importance in describing the manufacturing
activity. In NAICS, such activities (footwear and furniture manufacturing) are not classified in the Plastics and
Rubber Products Manufacturing subsector because the core technologies for these activities are diverse and involve
multiple materials.
Within the Plastics and Rubber Products Manufacturing subsector, a distinction is made between plastics and
rubber products at the industry group level, although it is not a rigid distinction, as can be seen from the definition of
Industry 32622, Rubber and Plastics Hoses and Belting Manufacturing. As materials technology progresses, plastics
are increasingly being used as a substitute for rubber; and eventually, the distinction may disappear as a basis for
establishment classification.
In keeping with the core technology focus of plastics, lamination of plastics film to plastics film as well as the
production of bags from plastics only is classified in this subsector. Lamination and bag production involving
plastics and materials other than plastics are classified in Subsector 322, Paper Manufacturing.
3261 Plastics Product ManufacturingT
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in processing new or spent (i.e., recycled)
plastics resins into intermediate or final products, using such processes as compression molding; extrusion molding;
injection molding; blow molding; and casting. Within most of these industries, the production process is such that a
wide variety of products can be made.

327 Nonmetallic Mineral Product ManufacturingT
The Nonmetallic Mineral Product Manufacturing subsector transforms mined or quarried nonmetallic minerals,
such as sand, gravel, stone, clay, and refractory materials, into products for intermediate or final consumption.
MANUFACTURING 215
TCanadian, Mexican, and United States industries are comparable.
census.gov/naics
Processes used include grinding, mixing, cutting, shaping, and honing. Heat often is used in the process and
chemicals are frequently mixed to change the composition, purity, and chemical properties for the intended product.
For example, glass is produced by heating silica sand to the melting point (sometimes combined with cullet or
recycled glass) and then drawn, floated, or blow molded to the desired shape or thickness. Refractory materials are
heated and then formed into bricks or other shapes for use in industrial applications.
The Nonmetallic Mineral Product Manufacturing subsector includes establishments that manufacture bricks,
refractories, ceramic products, and glass and glass products, such as plate glass and containers. Also included are
cement and concrete products, lime, gypsum and other nonmetallic mineral products including abrasive products,
ceramic plumbing fixtures, statuary, cut stone products, and mineral wool. The products are used in a wide range of
activities from construction and heavy and light manufacturing to articles for personal use.
Mining, beneficiating, and manufacturing activities often occur in a single location. Separate receipts will be
collected for these activities whenever possible. When receipts cannot be broken out between mining and
manufacturing, establishments that mine or quarry nonmetallic minerals, beneficiate the nonmetallic minerals, and
further process the nonmetallic minerals into a more finished manufactured product are classified based on the
primary activity of the establishment. A mine that manufactures a small amount of finished products is classified in
Sector 21, Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction. An establishment that mines whose primary output is a
more finished manufactured product is classified in the Manufacturing sector.
Excluded from the Nonmetallic Mineral Product Manufacturing subsector are establishments that primarily
beneficiate mined nonmetallic minerals. Beneficiation is the process whereby the extracted material is reduced to
particles that can be separated into mineral and waste, the former suitable for further processing or direct use.
Beneficiation establishments are included in Sector 21, Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction.

331 Primary Metal ManufacturingT
Industries in the Primary Metal Manufacturing subsector smelt and/or refine ferrous and nonferrous metals from
ore, pig or scrap, using electrometallurgical and other process metallurgical techniques. Establishments in this
subsector also manufacture metal alloys and superalloys by introducing other chemical elements to pure metals. The
output of smelting and refining, usually in ingot form, is used in rolling, drawing, and extruding operations to make
sheet, strip, bar, rod, or wire, and in molten form to make castings and other basic metal products.
Primary manufacturing of ferrous and nonferrous metals begins with ore or concentrate as the primary input.
Establishments manufacturing primary metals from ore and/or concentrate remain classified in the primary smelting,
primary refining, or iron and steel mill industries regardless of the form of their output. Establishments primarily
engaged in secondary smelting and/or secondary refining recover ferrous and nonferrous metals from scrap and/or
dross. The output of the secondary smelting and/or secondary refining industries is limited to shapes such as ingot
or billet that will be further processed. Recovery of metals from scrap often occurs in establishments that are
primarily engaged in activities, such as rolling, drawing, extruding, or similar processes.
Excluded from the Primary Metal Manufacturing subsector are establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing
ferrous and nonferrous forgings (except ferrous forgings made in steel mills) and stampings. Although forging,
stamping, and casting are all methods used to make metal shapes, forging and stamping do not use molten metals
and are included in Subsector 332, Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing. Establishments primarily engaged in
operating coke ovens are classified in Industry 32419, Other Petroleum and Coal Products Manufacturing.

332 Fabricated Metal Product ManufacturingT
Industries in the Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing subsector transform metal into intermediate or end
products, other than machinery, computers and electronics, and metal furniture, or treat metals and metal formed
products fabricated elsewhere. Important fabricated metal processes are forging, stamping, bending, forming, and
machining, used to shape individual pieces of metal; and other processes, such as welding and assembling, used to
join separate parts together. Establishments in this subsector may use one of these processes or a combination of
these processes.
The NAICS structure for this subsector distinguishes the forging and stamping processes in a single industry. The
remaining industries in the subsector group establishments based on similar combinations of processes used to make
products.
The manufacturing performed in the Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing subsector begins with manufactured
metal shapes. The establishments in this subsector further fabricate the purchased metal shapes into a product. For
instance, the Spring and Wire Product Manufacturing industry starts with wire and fabricates such items.
Within manufacturing there are other establishments that make the same products made by this subsector; only
these establishments begin production further back in the production process. These establishments have a more
integrated operation. For instance, one establishment may manufacture steel, draw it into wire, and make wire
products in the same establishment. Such operations are classified in the Primary Metal Manufacturing subsector.

333 Machinery ManufacturingT
Industries in the Machinery Manufacturing subsector create end products that apply mechanical force, for
example, the application of gears and levers, to perform work. Some important processes for the manufacture of
machinery are forging, stamping, bending, forming, and machining that are used to shape individual pieces of metal.
Processes, such as welding and assembling are used to join separate parts together. Although these processes are
similar to those used in metal fabricating establishments, machinery manufacturing is different because it typically
employs multiple metal forming processes in manufacturing the various parts of the machine. Moreover, complex
assembly operations are an inherent part of the production process.
In general, design considerations are very important in machinery production. Establishments specialize in making
machinery designed for particular applications. Thus, design is considered to be part of the production process for
the purpose of implementing NAICS. The NAICS structure reflects this by defining industries and industry groups
that make machinery for different applications. A broad distinction exists between machinery that is generally used
in a variety of industrial applications (i.e., general purpose machinery) and machinery that is designed to be used in
a particular industry (i.e., special purpose machinery). Three industry groups consist of special purpose machinery--
Agricultural, Construction, and Mining Machinery Manufacturing; Industrial Machinery Manufacturing; and
Commercial and Service Industry Machinery Manufacturing. The other industry groups make general purpose
machinery: Ventilation, Heating, Air-Conditioning, and Commercial Refrigeration Equipment Manufacturing;
Metalworking Machinery Manufacturing; Engine, Turbine, and Power Transmission Equipment Manufacturing; and
Other General Purpose Machinery Manufacturing.

334 Computer and Electronic Product ManufacturingT
Industries in the Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing subsector group establishments that manufacture
computers, computer peripherals, communications equipment, and similar electronic products, and establishments
that manufacture components for such products. The Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing industries
have been combined in the hierarchy of NAICS because of the economic significance they have attained. Their
rapid growth suggests that they will become even more important to the economies of all three North American
countries in the future, and in addition their manufacturing processes are fundamentally different from the
manufacturing processes of other machinery and equipment. The design and use of integrated circuits and the
application of highly specialized miniaturization technologies are common elements in the production technologies
of the Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing subsector. Convergence of technology motivates this
NAICS subsector. Digitalization of sound recording, for example, causes both the medium (the compact disc) and
the equipment to resemble the technologies for recording, storing, transmitting, and manipulating data.
Communications technology and equipment have been converging with computer technology. When
technologically-related components are in the same sector, it makes it easier to adjust the classification for future
changes, without needing to redefine its basic structure. The creation of the Computer and Electronic Product
Manufacturing subsector assists in delineating new and emerging industries because the activities that will serve as
the probable sources of new industries, such as computer manufacturing and communications equipment
manufacturing, or computers and audio equipment, are brought together. As new activities emerge, they are less
likely to cross the subsector boundaries of the classification.

336 Transportation Equipment ManufacturingT
Industries in the Transportation Equipment Manufacturing subsector produce equipment for transporting people
and goods. Transportation equipment is a type of machinery. An entire subsector is devoted to this activity because
of the significance of its economic size in all three North American countries.
Establishments in this subsector utilize production processes similar to those of other machinery manufacturing
establishmentsbending, forming, welding, machining, and assembling metal or plastic parts into components and
finished products. However, the assembly of components and subassemblies and their further assembly into
finished vehicles tends to be a more common production process in this subsector than in the Machinery
Manufacturing subsector.
NAICS has industry groups for the manufacture of equipment for each mode of transportroad, rail, air and
water. Parts for motor vehicles warrant a separate industry group because of their importance and because they
require less assembly than complete vehicles.

337 Furniture and Related Product ManufacturingT
Industries in the Furniture and Related Product Manufacturing subsector make furniture and related articles, such
as mattresses, window blinds, cabinets, and fixtures. The processes used in the manufacture of furniture include the
cutting, bending, molding, laminating, and assembly of such materials as wood, metal, glass, plastics, and rattan.
However, the production process for furniture is not solely bending metal, cutting and shaping wood, or extruding
and molding plastics. Design and fashion trends play an important part in the production of furniture. The
integrated design of the article for both esthetic and functional qualities is also a major part of the process of
manufacturing furniture. Design services may be performed by the furniture establishment's work force or may be
purchased from industrial designers.
Furniture may be made of any material, but the most common ones used in North America are metal and wood.
Furniture manufacturing establishments may specialize in making articles primarily from one material. Some of the
equipment required to make a wooden table, for example, is different from that used to make a metal one. However,
furniture is usually made from several materials. A wooden table might have metal brackets, and a wooden chair a
fabric or plastics seat. Therefore, in NAICS, furniture initially is classified based on the type of furniture
(application for which it is designed) rather than the material used. For example, an upholstered sofa is treated as
household furniture, although it may also be used in hotels or offices.
When classifying furniture according to the component material from which it is made, furniture made from more
than one material is classified based on the material used in the frame, or if there is no frame, the predominant
component material. Upholstered household furniture (excluding kitchen and dining room chairs with upholstered
seats) is classified without regard to the frame material. Kitchen or dining room chairs with upholstered seats are
classified according to the frame material.
Furniture may be made on a stock or custom basis and may be shipped assembled or unassembled (i.e.,
knockdown). The manufacture of furniture parts and frames is included in this subsector.
Some of the processes used in furniture manufacturing are similar to processes that are used in other segments of
manufacturing. For example, cutting and assembly occurs in the production of wood trusses that are classified in
Subsector 321, Wood Product Manufacturing. However, the multiple processes that distinguish wood furniture
manufacturing from wood product manufacturing warrant inclusion of wooden furniture manufacturing in the
Furniture and Related Product Manufacturing subsector. Metal furniture manufacturing uses techniques that are also
employed in the manufacturing of roll formed products classified in Subsector 332, Fabricated Metal Product
Manufacturing. The molding process for plastics furniture is similar to the molding of other plastics products.
However, plastics furniture producing establishments tend to specialize in furniture.
NAICS attempts to keep furniture manufacturing together, but there are two notable exceptions: seating for
transportation equipment and specialized hospital furniture (e.g., hospital beds and operating tables). These
exceptions are related to the fact that some of the aspects of the production process for these products, primarily the
design, are highly integrated with the other manufactured goods, namely motor vehicles and medical equipment.

manufacturing sporting and athletic goods that include products such as tennis racquets and golf balls. The
processes for these products differ from each other, and the processes differ significantly from the fabrication
processes used in making dolls or toys, the melting and shaping of precious metals to make jewelry, and the
bending, forming, and assembly used in making medical products.
The industries in this subsector are defined by what is made rather than how it is made. Although individual
establishments might be appropriately classified elsewhere in the NAICS structure, for historical continuity, these
product-based industries were maintained. In most cases, no one process or material predominates for an industry.

Sector 42--Wholesale TradeT
The Sector as a Whole
The Wholesale Trade sector comprises establishments engaged in wholesaling merchandise, generally without
transformation, and rendering services incidental to the sale of merchandise. The merchandise described in this
sector includes the outputs of agriculture, mining, manufacturing, and certain information industries, such as
publishing.
The wholesaling process is an intermediate step in the distribution of merchandise. Wholesalers are organized to
sell or arrange the purchase or sale of (a) goods for resale (i.e., goods sold to other wholesalers or retailers), (b)
capital or durable nonconsumer goods, and (c) raw and intermediate materials and supplies used in production.
Wholesalers sell merchandise to other businesses and normally operate from a warehouse or office. These
warehouses and offices are characterized by having little or no display of merchandise. In addition, neither the
design nor the location of the premises is intended to solicit walk-in traffic. Wholesalers do not normally use
advertising directed to the general public. Customers are generally reached initially via telephone, in-person
marketing, or by specialized advertising that may include Internet and other electronic means. Follow-up orders are
either vendor-initiated or client-initiated, generally based on previous sales, and typically exhibit strong ties between
sellers and buyers. In fact, transactions are often conducted between wholesalers and clients that have long-standing
business relationships.
This sector comprises two main types of wholesalers: merchant wholesalers that sell goods on their own account
and business-to-business electronic markets, agents, and brokers that arrange sales and purchases for others
generally for a commission or fee.
(1) Establishments that sell goods on their own account are known as wholesale merchants, distributors, jobbers,
drop shippers, and import/export merchants. Also included as wholesale merchants are sales offices and sales
branches (but not retail stores) maintained by manufacturing, refining, or mining enterprises apart from their plants
or mines for the purpose of marketing their products and group purchasing organizations (e.g., purchasing and
selling goods on their own account). Merchant wholesale establishments typically maintain their own warehouse,
where they receive and handle goods for their customers. Goods are generally sold without transformation, but may
include integral functions, such as sorting, packaging, labeling, and other marketing services.
(2) Establishments arranging for the purchase or sale of goods owned by others or purchasing goods, generally on
a commission basis are known as business-to-business electronic markets, agents and brokers, commission
merchants, import/export agents and brokers, auction companies, group purchasing organizations (e.g., purchasing
or arranging for the purchases of goods owned by others), and manufacturers' representatives. These establishments
operate from offices and generally do not own or handle the goods they sell.
Some wholesale establishments may be connected with a single manufacturer and promote and sell the particular
manufacturer’s products to a wide range of other wholesalers or retailers. Other wholesalers may be connected to a
retail chain, or limited number of retail chains, and only provide a variety of products needed by that particular retail
operation(s). These wholesalers may obtain the products from a wide range of manufacturers. Still other
wholesalers may not take title to the goods, but act as agents and brokers for a commission.
Although, in general, wholesaling normally denotes sales in large volumes, durable nonconsumer goods may be
sold in single units. Sales of capital or durable nonconsumer goods used in the production of goods and services,
such as farm machinery, medium- and heavy-duty trucks, and industrial machinery, are always included in
wholesale trade.
423 Merchant Wholesalers, Durable Goods
Industries in the Merchant Wholesalers, Durable Goods subsector sell capital or durable goods to other businesses.
Merchant wholesalers generally take title to the goods that they sell; in other words, they buy and sell goods on their
own account. Durable goods are new or used items generally with a normal life expectancy of three years or more.
Durable goods merchant wholesale trade establishments are engaged in wholesaling products, such as motor
vehicles, furniture, construction materials, machinery and equipment (including household-type appliances), metals
and minerals (except petroleum), sporting goods, toys and hobby goods, recyclable materials, and parts.

Sector 44-45--Retail TradeT
The Sector as a Whole
The Retail Trade sector comprises establishments engaged in retailing merchandise, generally without
transformation, and rendering services incidental to the sale of merchandise.
The retailing process is the final step in the distribution of merchandise; retailers are, therefore, organized to sell
merchandise in small quantities to the general public. This sector comprises two main types of retailers: store and
nonstore retailers.
1. Store retailers operate fixed point-of-sale locations, located and designed to attract a high volume of walk-in
customers. In general, retail stores have extensive displays of merchandise and use mass-media advertising to
attract customers. They typically sell merchandise to the general public for personal or household consumption, but
some also serve business and institutional clients. These include office supply stores, computer and software stores,
building materials dealers, plumbing supply stores, and electrical supply stores. Catalog showrooms, gasoline
stations, automotive dealers, and mobile home dealers are treated as store retailers.
In addition to retailing merchandise, some types of store retailers are also engaged in the provision of after-sales
services, such as repair and installation. For example, new automobile dealers, electronics and appliance stores, and
musical instrument and supplies stores often provide repair services. As a general rule, establishments engaged in
retailing merchandise and providing after-sales services are classified in this sector.
The first eleven subsectors of retail trade are store retailers. The establishments are grouped into industries and
industry groups typically based on one or more of the following criteria:
(a) The merchandise line or lines carried by the store; for example, specialty stores are distinguished from general-
line stores.
(b) The usual trade designation of the establishments. This criterion applies in cases where a store type is well
recognized by the industry and the public, but difficult to define strictly in terms of merchandise lines carried; for
example, pharmacies, hardware stores, and department stores.
(c) Capital requirements in terms of display equipment; for example, food stores have equipment requirements not
found in other retail industries.
(d) Human resource requirements in terms of expertise; for example, the staff of an automobile dealer requires
knowledge in financing, registering, and licensing issues that are not necessary in other retail industries.
2. Nonstore retailers, like store retailers, are organized to serve the general public, but their retailing methods
differ. The establishments of this subsector reach customers and market merchandise with methods, such as the
broadcasting of "infomercials," the broadcasting and publishing of direct-response advertising, the publishing of
paper and electronic catalogs, door-to-door solicitation, in-home demonstration, selling from portable stalls (street
vendors, except food), and distribution through vending machines. Establishments engaged in the direct sale
(nonstore) of products, such as home heating oil dealers and home delivery newspaper routes, are included here.
The buying of goods for resale is a characteristic of retail trade establishments that particularly distinguishes them
from establishments in the agriculture, manufacturing, and construction industries. For example, farms that sell their
products at or from the point of production are not classified in retail, but rather in agriculture. Similarly,
establishments that both manufacture and sell their products to the general public are not classified in retail, but
rather in manufacturing. However, establishments that engage in processing activities incidental to retailing are
classified in retail. This includes optical goods stores that do in-store grinding of lenses, and meat and seafood
markets.
Wholesalers also engage in the buying of goods for resale, but they are not usually organized to serve the general
public. They typically operate from a warehouse or office, and neither the design nor the location of these premises
is intended to solicit a high volume of walk-in traffic. Wholesalers supply institutional, industrial, wholesale, and
retail clients; their operations are, therefore, generally organized to purchase, sell, and deliver merchandise in larger

quantities. However, dealers of durable nonconsumer goods, such as farm machinery and heavy-duty trucks, are
included in wholesale trade even if they often sell these products in single units.
441 Motor Vehicle and Parts Dealers
Industries in the Motor Vehicle and Parts Dealers subsector retail motor vehicles and parts from fixed point-of-sale
locations. Establishments in this subsector typically operate from a showroom and/or an open lot where the vehicles
are on display. The display of vehicles and the related parts require little by way of display equipment. The
personnel generally include both the sales and sales support staff familiar with the requirements for registering and
financing a vehicle as well as a staff of parts experts and mechanics trained to provide repair and maintenance
services for the vehicles. Specific industries included in this subsector identify the type of vehicle being retailed.
Sales of capital or durable nonconsumer goods, such as medium- and heavy-duty trucks, are always included in
wholesale trade. These goods are virtually never sold through retail methods.
4411 Automobile Dealers
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in retailing new and used automobiles and light
trucks, such as sport utility vehicles, and passenger and cargo vans.

Sector 48-49--Transportation and WarehousingT
The Sector as a Whole
The Transportation and Warehousing sector includes industries providing transportation of passengers and cargo,
warehousing and storage for goods, scenic and sightseeing transportation, and support activities related to modes of
transportation. Establishments in these industries use transportation equipment or transportation related facilities as
a productive asset. The type of equipment depends on the mode of transportation. The modes of transportation are
air, rail, water, road, and pipeline.
The Transportation and Warehousing sector distinguishes three basic types of activities: subsectors for each mode
of transportation, a subsector for warehousing and storage, and a subsector for establishments providing support
activities for transportation. In addition, there are subsectors for establishments that provide passenger
transportation for scenic and sightseeing purposes, postal services, and courier services.
A separate subsector for support activities is established in the sector because, first, support activities for
transportation are inherently multimodal, such as freight transportation arrangement, or have multimodal aspects.
Secondly, there are production process similarities among the support activity industries.
One of the support activities identified in the Support Activities for Transportation subsector is the routine repair
and maintenance of transportation equipment (e.g., aircraft at an airport, railroad rolling stock at a railroad terminal,
or ships at a harbor or port facility). Such establishments do not perform complete overhauling or rebuilding of
transportation equipment (i.e., periodic restoration of transportation equipment to original design specifications) or
transportation equipment conversion (i.e., major modification to systems). An establishment that primarily performs
factory (or shipyard) overhauls, rebuilding, or conversions of aircraft, railroad rolling stock, or ships is classified in
Subsector 336, Transportation Equipment Manufacturing, according to the type of equipment.
Many of the establishments in this sector often operate on networks, with physical facilities, labor forces, and
equipment spread over an extensive geographic area.
Warehousing establishments in this sector are distinguished from merchant wholesaling in that the warehouse
establishments do not sell the goods.
Excluded from this sector are establishments primarily engaged in providing travel agent services that support
transportation and other establishments, such as hotels, businesses, and government agencies. These establishments
are classified in Sector 56, Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services. Also,
establishments primarily engaged in providing rental and leasing of transportation equipment without operator are
classified in Subsector 532, Rental and Leasing Services.
481 Air TransportationT
Industries in the Air Transportation subsector provide air transportation of passengers and/or cargo using aircraft,
such as airplanes and helicopters. The subsector distinguishes scheduled from nonscheduled air transportation.
Scheduled air carriers fly regular routes on regular schedules and operate even if flights are only partially loaded.
Nonscheduled carriers often operate during nonpeak time slots at busy airports. These establishments have more
flexibility with respect to choice of airport, hours of operation, load factors, and similar operational characteristics.
Nonscheduled carriers provide chartered air transportation of passengers, cargo, or specialty flying services.
Specialty flying services establishments use general purpose aircraft to provide a variety of specialized flying
services.
Scenic and sightseeing air transportation and air courier services are not included in this subsector but are included
in Subsector 487, Scenic and Sightseeing Transportation, and in Subsector 492, Couriers and Messengers,
respectively. Although these activities may use aircraft, they are different from the activities included in air
transportation. Air sightseeing does not usually involve place-to-place transportation; the passenger's flight (e.g.,
balloon ride, aerial sightseeing) typically starts and ends at the same location. Courier services (individual package
or cargo delivery) include more than air transportation; road transportation is usually required to deliver the cargo to
the intended recipient.

482 Rail TransportationT
Industries in the Rail Transportation subsector provide rail transportation of passengers and/or cargo using railroad
rolling stock. The railroads in this subsector primarily either operate on networks, with physical facilities, labor
force, and equipment spread over an extensive geographic area, or operate over a short distance on a local rail line.
Scenic and sightseeing rail transportation and street railroads, commuter rail, and rapid transit are not included in
this subsector but are included in Subsector 487, Scenic and Sightseeing Transportation, and Subsector 485, Transit
and Ground Passenger Transportation, respectively. Although these activities use railroad rolling stock, they are
different from the activities included in rail transportation. Sightseeing and scenic railroads do not usually involve
place-to-place transportation; the passenger's trip typically starts and ends at the same location. Commuter railroads

484 Truck TransportationT
Industries in the Truck Transportation subsector provide over-the-road transportation of cargo using motor
vehicles, such as trucks and tractor trailers. The subsector is subdivided into general freight trucking and specialized
freight trucking. This distinction reflects differences in equipment used, type of load carried, scheduling, terminal,
and other networking services. General freight transportation establishments handle a wide variety of general
commodities, generally palletized, and transported in a container or van trailer. Specialized freight transportation is
the transportation of cargo that, because of size, weight, shape, or other inherent characteristics, requires specialized
equipment for transportation.
Each of these industry groups is further subdivided based on distance traveled. Local trucking establishments
primarily carry goods within a single metropolitan area and its adjacent nonurban areas. Long-distance trucking
establishments carry goods between metropolitan areas.
The Specialized Freight Trucking industry group includes a separate industry for Used Household and Office
Goods Moving. The household and office goods movers are separated because of the substantial network of
establishments that has developed to deal with local and long-distance moving and the associated storage. In this
area, the same establishment provides both local and long-distance services, while other specialized freight
establishments generally limit their services to either local or long-distance hauling.
4841 General Freight TruckingT
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in providing general freight trucking. General
freight trucking establishments handle a wide variety of commodities, generally palletized, and transported in a
container or van trailer. The establishments of this industry group provide a combination of the following network
activities: local pick-up, local sorting and terminal operations, line-haul, destination sorting and terminal operations,
and local delivery.

491 Postal ServiceT
The Postal Service subsector includes the activities of the National Post Office and its subcontractors operating
under a universal service obligation to provide mail services, and using the infrastructure required to fulfill that
obligation. These services include delivering letters and small parcels. These articles can be described as those that
can be handled by one person without using special equipment. This allows the collection, pick-up, and delivery
operations to be done with limited labor costs and minimal equipment. Sorting and transportation activities, where
necessary, are generally mechanized. The restriction to small parcels distinguishes these establishments from those
in the transportation industries. These establishments may also provide express delivery services using the
infrastructure established for provision of basic mail services.
The traditional activity of the National Postal Service is described in this subsector. Subcontractors include rural
post offices on contract to the Postal Service.
Bulk transportation of mail on contract to the Postal Service is not included here, because it is usually done by
transportation establishments that carry other customers' cargo as well. Establishments that provide courier and
express delivery services without operating under a universal service obligation are classified in Subsector 492,

Industries in the Couriers and Messengers subsector provide intercity, local, and/or international delivery of
parcels and documents (including express delivery services) without operating under a universal service obligation.
These articles may originate in the U.S. but be delivered to another country and can be described as those that may
be handled by one person without using special equipment. This allows the collection, pick-up, and delivery
operations to be done with limited labor costs and minimal equipment. Sorting and transportation activities, where
necessary, are generally mechanized. The restriction to small parcels partly distinguishes these establishments from
those in the transportation industries. The complete network of courier services establishments also distinguishes
these transportation services from local messenger and delivery establishments in this subsector. This includes the
establishments that perform intercity transportation as well as establishments that, under contract to them, perform
local pick-up and delivery. Messengers, which usually deliver within a metropolitan or single urban area, may use
bicycle, foot, small truck, or van.

storing the goods and keeping them secure. They may also provide a range of services, often referred to as logistics
services, related to the distribution of goods. Logistics services can include labeling, breaking bulk, inventory
control and management, light assembly, order entry and fulfillment, packaging, pick and pack, price marking and
ticketing, and transportation arrangement. However, establishments in this industry group always provide
warehousing or storage services in addition to any logistic services. Furthermore, the warehousing or storage of
goods must be more than incidental to the performance of services, such as price marking.

Sector 51--InformationT
The Sector as a Whole
The Information sector comprises establishments engaged in the following processes: (a) producing and
distributing information and cultural products, (b) providing the means to transmit or distribute these products as
well as data or communications, and (c) processing data.
The main components of this sector are the publishing industries, including software publishing, and both
traditional publishing and publishing exclusively on the Internet; the motion picture and sound recording industries;
the broadcasting industries, including traditional broadcasting and broadcasting exclusively over the Internet; the
telecommunications industries; and Web search portals, data processing industries, and the information services
industries.
The expressions ''information age'' and ''global information economy'' are used with considerable frequency today.
The general idea of an ''information economy'' includes both the notion of industries primarily producing,
processing, and distributing information, as well as the idea that every industry is using available information and
information technology to reorganize and make themselves more productive. For the purposes of NAICS, it is the
transformation of information into a commodity that is produced and distributed by a number of growing industries
that is at issue.
Cultural products are those that directly express attitudes, opinions, ideas, values, and artistic creativity; provide
entertainment; or offer information and analysis concerning the past and present. Included in this definition are
popular, mass-produced products as well as cultural products that normally have a more limited audience, such as
poetry books, literary magazines, or classical records.
The unique characteristics of information and cultural products, and of the processes involved in their production
and distribution, distinguish the Information sector from the goods-producing and service-producing sectors. Some
of these characteristics are:
1. Unlike traditional goods, an ''information or cultural product,'' such as an on-line newspaper or a television
program, does not necessarily have tangible qualities, nor is it necessarily associated with a particular form. A movie
can be shown at a movie theater, on a television broadcast, through video-on-demand or rented at a local video store.
A sound recording can be aired on radio, embedded in multimedia products, or sold at a record store.
2. Unlike traditional services, the delivery of these products does not require direct contact between the supplier and
the consumer.
3. The value of these products to the consumer lies in their informational, educational, cultural, or entertainment
content, not in the format in which they are distributed. Most of these products are protected from unlawful
reproduction by copyright laws.
4. The intangible property aspect of information and cultural products makes the processes involved in their
production and distribution very different from goods and services. Only those possessing the rights to these works
are authorized to reproduce, alter, improve, and distribute them. Acquiring and using these rights often involves
significant costs. In addition, technology is revolutionizing the distribution of these products. It is possible to
distribute them in a physical form, via broadcast, or on-line.
5. Distributors of information and cultural products can easily add value to the products they distribute. For
instance, broadcasters add advertising not contained in the original product. This capacity means that unlike
traditional distributors, they derive revenue not from sale of the distributed product to the final consumer, but from
those who pay for the privilege of adding information to the original product. Similarly, a directory and mailing list
publisher can acquire the rights to thousands of previously published newspaper and periodical articles and add new
value by providing search and software and organizing the information in a way that facilitates research and
retrieval. These products often command a much higher price than the original information.
The distribution modes for information commodities may either eliminate the necessity for traditional
manufacture, or reverse the conventional order of manufacture-distribute: A newspaper distributed on-line, for

example, can be printed locally or by the final consumer. Similarly, packaged software is available mainly on-line.
The NAICS Information sector is designed to make such economic changes transparent as they occur, or to facilitate
designing surveys that will monitor the new phenomena and provide data to analyze the changes.
Many of the industries in the NAICS Information sector are engaged in producing products protected by copyright
law, or in distributing them (other than distribution by traditional wholesale and retail methods). Examples are
traditional publishing industries, software and directory and mailing list publishing industries, and film and sound
industries. Broadcasting and telecommunications industries and information providers and processors are also
included in the Information sector, because their technologies are so closely linked to other industries in the
Information sector.
511 Publishing Industries (except Internet)T
Industries in the Publishing Industries (except Internet) subsector group establishments engaged in the publishing
of newspapers, magazines, other periodicals, and books, as well as directory and mailing list and software
publishing. In general, these establishments, which are known as publishers, issue copies of works for which they
usually possess copyright. Works may be in one or more formats including traditional print form, CD-ROM, or
proprietary electronic networks. Publishers may publish works originally created by others for which they have
obtained the rights and/or works that they have created in-house. Software publishing is included here because the
activity, creation of a copyrighted product and bringing it to market, is equivalent to the creation process for other
types of intellectual products.
In NAICS, publishing--the reporting, writing, editing, and other processes that are required to create an edition of
a newspaper--is treated as a major economic activity in its own right, rather than as a subsidiary activity to a
manufacturing activity, printing. Thus, publishing is classified in the Information sector; whereas, printing remains
in the Manufacturing sector. In part, the NAICS classification reflects the fact that publishing increasingly takes
place in establishments that are physically separate from the associated printing establishments. More crucially, the
NAICS classification of book and newspaper publishing is intended to portray their roles in a modern economy, in
which they do not resemble manufacturing activities.
Music publishers are not included in the Publishing Industries (except Internet) subsector, but are included in the
Motion Picture and Sound Recording Industries subsector. Reproduction of prepackaged software is treated in
NAICS as a manufacturing activity; on-line distribution of software products is in the Information sector; and
custom design of software to client specifications is included in the Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services
sector. These distinctions arise because of the different ways that software is created, reproduced, and distributed.
The Publishing Industries (except Internet) subsector includes establishments that publish software exclusively on
the Internet but excludes establishments that publish other content exclusively on the Internet. Establishments
publishing content other than software exclusively on the Internet are included in Subsector 519, Other Information
Services. The Publishing Industries (except Internet) subsector also excludes products, such as manifold business
forms and appointment books. Information is not the essential component of these items. Establishments producing
these items are included in Subsector 323, Printing and Related Support Activities.
5111 Newspaper, Periodical, Book, and Directory PublishersT
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in publishing newspapers, magazines, other
periodicals, books, directories and mailing lists, and other works, such as calendars, greeting cards, and maps.
These works are characterized by the intellectual creativity required in their development and are usually protected
by copyright. Publishers distribute or arrange for the distribution of these works.
Publishing establishments may create the works in-house, or contract for, purchase, or compile works that were
originally created by others. These works may be published in one or more formats, such as print and/or electronic
form, including proprietary electronic networks. Establishments in this industry may print, reproduce, or offer direct
access to the works themselves or may arrange with others to carry out such functions.
Establishments that both print and publish may fill excess capacity with commercial or job printing. However, the
publishing activity is still considered to be the primary activity of these establishments.

512 Motion Picture and Sound Recording IndustriesT
Industries in the Motion Picture and Sound Recording Industries subsector group establishments involved in the
production and distribution of motion pictures and sound recordings. While producers and distributors of motion
pictures and sound recordings issue works for sale as traditional publishers do, the processes are sufficiently
different to warrant placing establishments engaged in these activities in a separate subsector. Production is
typically a complex process that involves several distinct types of establishments that are engaged in activities, such
as contracting with performers, creating the film or sound content, and providing technical postproduction services.
Film distribution is often to exhibitors, such as theaters and broadcasters, rather than through the wholesale and
retail distribution chain. When the product is in a mass-produced form, NAICS treats production and distribution as

517 TelecommunicationsT
Industries in the Telecommunications subsector group establishments that provide telecommunications and the
services related to that activity (e.g., telephony, including Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP); cable and satellite
television distribution services; Internet access; telecommunications reselling services). The Telecommunications
subsector is primarily engaged in operating and/or providing access to facilities for the transmission of voice, data,
text, sound, and video. Transmission facilities may be based on a single technology or a combination of
technologies. Establishments in the Telecommunications subsector are grouped into three industry groups. The first
two are comprised of establishments that operate transmission facilities and infrastructure that they own and/or
lease, and provide telecommunications services using those facilities. The distinction between the first two industry
groups is the type of infrastructure operated (i.e., wired and/or wireless or satellite). The third industry group is
comprised of establishments that provide support activities, telecommunications reselling services, or many of the
same services provided by establishments in the first two industry groups, but do not operate as telecommunications
carriers. Establishments primarily engaged as independent contractors in the installation and maintenance of
broadcasting and telecommunications systems are classified in Sector 23, Construction. Establishments known as
Internet cafes, primarily engaged in offering limited Internet connectivity in combination with other services such as
facsimile services, training, rental of on-site personal computers, game rooms, or food services are classified in
Subsector 561, Administrative and Support Services, or Subsector 722, Food Services and Drinking Places,

Sector 52--Finance and InsuranceT
The Sector as a Whole
The Finance and Insurance sector comprises establishments primarily engaged in financial transactions
(transactions involving the creation, liquidation, or change in ownership of financial assets) and/or in facilitating
financial transactions. Three principal types of activities are identified:
1. Raising funds by taking deposits and/or issuing securities and, in the process, incurring liabilities.
Establishments engaged in this activity use raised funds to acquire financial assets by making loans and/or
purchasing securities. Putting themselves at risk, they channel funds from lenders to borrowers and transform or
repackage the funds with respect to maturity, scale, and risk. This activity is known as financial intermediation.
2. Pooling of risk by underwriting insurance and annuities. Establishments engaged in this activity collect fees,
insurance premiums, or annuity considerations; build up reserves; invest those reserves; and make contractual
payments. Fees are based on the expected incidence of the insured risk and the expected return on investment.
3. Providing specialized services facilitating or supporting financial intermediation, insurance, and employee
benefit programs.
In addition, monetary authorities charged with monetary control are included in this sector.
The subsectors, industry groups, and industries within the Finance and Insurance sector are defined on the basis of
their unique production processes. As with all industries, the production processes are distinguished by their use of
specialized human resources and specialized physical capital. In addition, the way in which these establishments
acquire and allocate financial capital, their source of funds, and the use of those funds provides a third basis for
distinguishing characteristics of the production process. For instance, the production process in raising funds
through deposit-taking is different from the process of raising funds in bond or money markets. The process of
making loans to individuals also requires different production processes than does the creation of investment pools
or the underwriting of securities.
Most of the Finance and Insurance subsectors contain one or more industry groups of (1) intermediaries with
similar patterns of raising and using funds and (2) establishments engaged in activities that facilitate, or are
otherwise related to, that type of financial or insurance intermediation. Industries within this sector are defined in
terms of activities for which a production process can be specified, and many of these activities are not exclusive to
a particular type of financial institution. To deal with the varied activities taking place within existing financial
institutions, the approach is to split these institutions into components performing specialized services. This requires
defining the units engaged in providing those services and developing procedures that allow for their delineation.
These units are the equivalents for finance and insurance of the establishments defined for other industries.
The output of many financial services, as well as the inputs and the processes by which they are combined, cannot
be observed at a single location and can only be defined at a higher level of the organizational structure of the
enterprise. Additionally, a number of independent activities that represent separate and distinct production
processes may take place at a single location belonging to a multilocation financial firm. Activities are more likely
to be homogeneous with respect to production characteristics than are locations, at least in financial services. The
classification defines activities broadly enough that it can be used both by those classifying by location and by those
employing a more top-down approach to the delineation of the establishment.
Establishments engaged in activities that facilitate, or are otherwise related to, the various types of intermediation
are included in multiple subsectors, rather than in a separate subsector dedicated to services alone, because these
services are performed by intermediaries, as well as by specialist establishments, and the extent to which the activity
of the intermediaries can be separately identified is not clear.
Financial industries are extensive users of electronic means for facilitating the verification of financial balances,
authorizing transactions, transferring funds to and from transactors' accounts, notifying banks (or credit card issuers)
of the individual transactions, and providing daily summaries. Since these transaction processing activities are
integral to the production of finance and insurance services, establishments that principally provide a financial
transaction processing service are classified in this sector, rather than in the data processing industry in the
Information sector.

Sector 53--Real Estate and Rental and LeasingT
The Sector as a Whole
The Real Estate and Rental and Leasing sector comprises establishments primarily engaged in renting, leasing, or
otherwise allowing the use of tangible or intangible assets, and establishments providing related services. The major
portion of this sector comprises establishments that rent, lease, or otherwise allow the use of their own assets by
others. The assets may be tangible, as is the case of real estate and equipment, or intangible, as is the case with
patents and trademarks.
This sector also includes establishments primarily engaged in managing real estate for others, selling, renting
and/or buying real estate for others, and appraising real estate. These activities are closely related to this sector's
main activity, and from a production basis they are included here. In addition, a substantial proportion of property
management is self-performed by lessors.
The main components of this sector are the real estate lessors industries (including equity real estate investment
trusts (REITs)); equipment lessors industries (including motor vehicles, computers, and consumer goods); and
lessors of nonfinancial intangible assets (except copyrighted works).
Excluded from this sector are establishments primarily engaged in renting or leasing equipment with operators.
Establishments renting or leasing equipment with operators are classified in various subsectors of NAICS depending
on the nature of the services provided (e.g., transportation, construction, agriculture). These activities are excluded
from this sector because the client is paying for the expertise and knowledge of the equipment operator, in addition
to the rental of the equipment. In many cases, such as the rental of heavy construction equipment, the operator is
essential to operate the equipment.
531 Real EstateT
Industries in the Real Estate subsector group establishments primarily engaged in renting or leasing real estate to
others; managing real estate for others; selling, buying, or renting real estate for others; and providing other real
estate related services, such as appraisal services.
This subsector includes equity real estate investment trusts (REITs) primarily engaged in leasing buildings,
dwellings, or other real estate property to others. Mortgage REITs are classified in Subsector 525, Funds, Trusts,
and Other Financial Vehicles.

532 Rental and Leasing ServicesT
Industries in the Rental and Leasing Services subsector include establishments that provide a wide array of
tangible goods, such as automobiles, computers, consumer goods, and industrial machinery and equipment, to
customers in return for a periodic rental or lease payment.
The subsector includes two main types of establishments: (1) those that are engaged in renting consumer goods
and equipment and (2) those that are engaged in leasing machinery and equipment often used for business
operations. The first type typically operates from a retail-like or storefront facility and maintains inventories of
goods that are rented for short periods of time. The latter type typically does not operate from retail-like locations or
maintain inventories, and offers longer-term leases. These establishments work directly with clients to enable them
to acquire the use of equipment on a lease basis, or they work with equipment vendors or dealers to support the
marketing of equipment to their customers under lease arrangements. Equipment lessors generally structure lease
contracts to meet the specialized needs of their clients and use their remarketing expertise to find other users for
previously leased equipment. Establishments that provide operating and capital (i.e., finance) leases are included in
this subsector.
Establishments primarily engaged in leasing in combination with providing loans are classified in Sector 52,
Finance and Insurance. Establishments primarily engaged in leasing real property are classified in Subsector 531,
Real Estate. Establishments primarily engaged in renting or leasing equipment with operators are classified in
various subsectors of NAICS depending on the nature of the services provided (e.g., transportation, construction,
agriculture). These activities are excluded from this subsector since the client is paying for the expertise and
knowledge of the equipment operator, in addition to the rental of the equipment. In many cases, such as the rental of
heavy construction equipment, the operator is essential to operate the equipment. Likewise, since the provision of
crop harvesting services includes both the equipment and operator, it is included in Subsector 115, Support
Activities for Agriculture and Forestry. The rental or leasing of copyrighted works is classified in Sector 51,
Information, and the rental or leasing of assets, such as patents, trademarks, and/or licensing agreements, is
classified in Subsector 533, Lessors of Nonfinancial Intangible Assets (except Copyrighted Works).
5321 Automotive Equipment Rental and LeasingT

Sector 54--Professional, Scientific, and Technical ServicesT
The Sector as a Whole
The Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services sector comprises establishments that specialize in performing
professional, scientific, and technical activities for others. These activities require a high degree of expertise and
training. The establishments in this sector specialize according to expertise and provide these services to clients in a
variety of industries and, in some cases, to households. Activities performed include: legal advice and
representation; accounting, bookkeeping, and payroll services; architectural, engineering, and specialized design
services; computer services; consulting services; research services; advertising services; photographic services;
translation and interpretation services; veterinary services; and other professional, scientific, and technical services.
This sector excludes establishments primarily engaged in providing a range of day-to-day office administrative
services, such as financial planning, billing and recordkeeping, personnel supply, and physical distribution and
logistics. These establishments are classified in Sector 56, Administrative and Support and Waste Management and
Remediation Services.
541 Professional, Scientific, and Technical ServicesT
Industries in the Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services subsector group establishments engaged in
processes where human capital is the major input. These establishments make available the knowledge and skills of
their employees, often on an assignment basis, where an individual or team is responsible for the delivery of services
to the client. The individual industries of this subsector are defined on the basis of the particular expertise and
training of the services provider.
The distinguishing feature of the Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services subsector is the fact that most of
the industries grouped in it have production processes that are almost wholly dependent on worker skills. In most of
these industries, equipment and materials are not of major importance, unlike health care, for example, where "high-
tech" machines and materials are important collaborating inputs to labor skills in the production of health care.
Thus, the establishments classified in this subsector sell expertise. Much of the expertise requires degrees, though
not in every case.

Sector 56--Administrative and Support and Waste Management and
Remediation ServicesT
The Sector as a Whole
The Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services sector comprises
establishments performing routine support activities for the day-to-day operations of other organizations. These
essential activities are often undertaken in-house by establishments in many sectors of the economy. The
establishments in this sector specialize in one or more of these support activities and provide these services to clients
in a variety of industries and, in some cases, to households. Activities performed include: office administration,
hiring and placing of personnel, document preparation and similar clerical services, solicitation, collection, security
and surveillance services, cleaning, and waste disposal services.
The administrative and management activities performed by establishments in this sector are typically on a
contract or fee basis. These activities may also be performed by establishments that are part of the company or
enterprise. However, establishments involved in administering, overseeing, and managing other establishments of
the company or enterprise are classified in Sector 55, Management of Companies and Enterprises. Establishments
in Sector 55, Management of Companies and Enterprises, normally undertake the strategic and organizational
planning and decision-making role of the company or enterprise. Government establishments engaged in
administering, overseeing, and managing governmental programs are classified in Sector 92, Public Administration.
561 Administrative and Support ServicesT
Industries in the Administrative and Support Services subsector group establishments engaged in activities that
support the day-to-day operations of other organizations. The processes employed in this sector (e.g., general
management, personnel administration, clerical activities, cleaning activities) are often integral parts of the activities
of establishments found in all sectors of the economy. The establishments classified in this subsector have
specialization in one or more of these activities and can, therefore, provide services to clients in a variety of
industries and, in some cases, to households. The individual industries of this subsector are defined on the basis of
the particular process that they are engaged in and the particular services they provide.
Many of the activities performed in this subsector are ongoing routine support functions that all businesses and
organizations must do and that they have traditionally done for themselves. Recent trends, however, are to contract
or purchase such services from businesses that specialize in such activities and can, therefore, provide the services
more efficiently.
The industries in this subsector cannot be viewed as strictly "support." The Travel Arrangement and Reservation
Services industry group includes travel agents, tour operators, and providers of other travel arrangement services,
such as hotel and restaurant reservations and arranging the purchase of tickets, serving many types of clients,
including individual consumers. This group was placed in this subsector because the services are often of the
"support" nature (e.g., travel arrangement), and businesses and other organizations increasingly purchase such
services.
The administrative and management activities performed by establishments in this sector are typically on a
contract or fee basis. These activities may also be performed by establishments that are part of the company or
enterprise. However, establishments involved in administering, overseeing, and managing other establishments of
the company or enterprise are classified in Sector 55, Management of Companies and Enterprises. Establishments
in Sector 55, Management of Companies and Enterprises, normally undertake the strategic and organizational

Sector 61--Educational ServicesT
The Sector as a Whole
The Educational Services sector comprises establishments that provide instruction and training in a wide variety of
subjects. This instruction and training is provided by specialized establishments, such as schools, colleges,
universities, and training centers. These establishments may be privately owned and operated for profit or not for
profit, or they may be publicly owned and operated. They may also offer food and/or accommodation services to
their students.
Educational services are usually delivered by teachers or instructors that explain, tell, demonstrate, supervise, and
direct learning. Instruction is imparted in diverse settings, such as educational institutions, the workplace, or the
home, and through diverse means, such as correspondence, television, the Internet, or other electronic and distance-
learning methods. The training provided by these establishments may include the use of simulators and simulation
methods. It can be adapted to the particular needs of the students, for example sign language can replace verbal
language for teaching students with hearing impairments. All industries in the sector share this commonality of
process, namely, labor inputs of instructors with the requisite subject matter expertise and teaching ability.
611 Educational ServicesT
Industries in the Educational Services subsector provide instruction and training in a wide variety of subjects. The
instruction and training is provided by specialized establishments, such as schools, colleges, universities, and
training centers.
The subsector is structured according to level and type of educational services. Elementary and secondary
schools, junior colleges and colleges, universities, and professional schools correspond to a recognized series of
formal levels of education designated by diplomas, associate degrees (including equivalent certificates), and
degrees. The remaining industry groups are based more on the type of instruction or training offered, and the levels
are not always as formally defined. The establishments are often highly specialized, many offering instruction in a
very limited subject matter, for example ski lessons or one specific computer software package. Within the
subsector, the level and types of training that are required of the instructors and teachers vary depending on the
industry.
Establishments that manage schools and other educational establishments on a contractual basis are classified in
this subsector if they both manage the operation and provide the operating staff. Such establishments are classified
in the Educational Services subsector based on the type of facility managed and operated.

starting with establishments providing medical care exclusively, continuing with those providing health care and
social assistance, and finally finishing with those providing only social assistance. Establishments in this sector
deliver services by trained professionals. All industries in the sector share this commonality of process, namely,
labor inputs of health practitioners or social workers with the requisite expertise. Many of the industries in the
sector are defined based on the educational degree held by the practitioners included in the industry.

Sector 71--Arts, Entertainment, and RecreationT
The Sector as a Whole
The Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation sector includes a wide range of establishments that operate facilities or
provide services to meet varied cultural, entertainment, and recreational interests of their patrons. This sector
comprises (1) establishments that are involved in producing, promoting, or participating in live performances,
events, or exhibits intended for public viewing; (2) establishments that preserve and exhibit objects and sites of
historical, cultural, or educational interest; and (3) establishments that operate facilities or provide services that
enable patrons to participate in recreational activities or pursue amusement, hobby, and leisure-time interests.
Some establishments that provide cultural, entertainment, or recreational facilities and services are classified in
other sectors. Excluded from this sector are: (1) establishments that provide both accommodations and recreational
facilities, such as hunting and fishing camps and resort and casino hotels are classified in Subsector 721,
Accommodation; (2) restaurants and night clubs that provide live entertainment in addition to the sale of food and
beverages are classified in Subsector 722, Food Services and Drinking Places; (3) motion picture theaters, libraries
and archives, and publishers of newspapers, magazines, books, periodicals, and computer software are classified in
Sector 51, Information; and (4) establishments using transportation equipment to provide recreational and
entertainment services, such as those operating sightseeing buses, dinner cruises, or helicopter rides, are classified in
Subsector 487, Scenic and Sightseeing Transportation.
711 Performing Arts, Spectator Sports, and Related IndustriesT
Industries in the Performing Arts, Spectator Sports, and Related Industries subsector group establishments that
produce or organize and promote live presentations involving the performances of actors and actresses, singers,
dancers, musical groups and artists, athletes, and other entertainers, including independent (i.e., freelance)
entertainers and the establishments that manage their careers. The classification recognizes four basic processes: (1)
producing (i.e., presenting) events; (2) organizing, managing, and/or promoting events; (3) managing and
representing entertainers; and (4) providing the artistic, creative and technical skills necessary to the production of
these live events. Also, this subsector contains four industries for performing arts companies. Each is defined on
the basis of the particular skills of the entertainers involved in the presentations.
The industry structure for this subsector makes a clear distinction between performing arts companies and
performing artists (i.e., independent or freelance). Although not unique to arts and entertainment, freelancing is a
particularly important phenomenon in this Performing Arts, Spectator Sports, and Related Industries subsector.
Distinguishing this activity from the production activity is a meaningful process differentiation. This approach,
however, is difficult to implement in the case of musical groups (i.e., companies) and artists, especially pop groups.
These establishments tend to be more loosely organized and it can be difficult to distinguish companies from
freelancers. For this reason, NAICS includes one industry that covers both musical groups and musical artists.
This subsector contains two industries for Industry Group 7113, Promoters of Performing Arts, Sports, and Similar
Events, one for those that operate facilities and another for those that do not. This is because there are significant
differences in cost structures between those promoters that manage and provide the staff to operate facilities and
those that do not. In addition to promoters without facilities, other industries in this subsector include
establishments that may operate without permanent facilities. These types of establishments include performing arts
companies; musical groups and artists; spectator sports; and independent (i.e., freelance) artists, writers, and
performers.
Excluded from this subsector are nightclubs. Some nightclubs promote live entertainment on a regular basis and it
can be argued that they could be classified in Industry Group 7113, Promoters of Performing Arts, Sports, and
Similar Events. However, since most of these establishments function as any other drinking place when they do not
promote entertainment and because most of their revenue is derived from sale of food and beverages, they are
classified in Subsector 722, Food Services and Drinking Places.

and recreation services, such as supplying and servicing amusement devices in places of business operated by
others; operating sports teams, clubs, or leagues engaged in playing games for recreational purposes; and guiding
tours without using transportation equipment.
This subsector does not cover all establishments providing recreational services. Other sectors of NAICS also
provide recreational services. Providers of recreational services are often engaged in processes classified in other
sectors of NAICS. For example, operators of resorts and hunting and fishing camps provide both accommodation
and recreational facilities and services. These establishments are classified in Subsector 721, Accommodation,
partly to reflect the significant costs associated with the provision of accommodation services and partly to ensure
consistency with international standards. Likewise, establishments using transportation equipment to provide
recreational and entertainment services, such as those operating sightseeing buses, dinner cruises, or helicopter rides,
are classified in Sector 48-49, Transportation and Warehousing.

Sector 72--Accommodation and Food ServicesT
The Sector as a Whole
The Accommodation and Food Services sector comprises establishments providing customers with lodging and/or
preparing meals, snacks, and beverages for immediate consumption. The sector includes both accommodation and
food services establishments because the two activities are often combined at the same establishment.
Excluded from this sector are civic and social organizations; amusement and recreation parks; theaters; and other
recreation or entertainment facilities providing food and beverage services.
721 AccommodationT
Industries in the Accommodation subsector provide lodging or short-term accommodations for travelers,
vacationers, and others. There is a wide range of establishments in these industries. Some provide lodging only,
while others provide meals, laundry services, and recreational facilities, as well as lodging. Lodging establishments
are classified in this subsector even if the provision of complementary services generates more revenue. The types
of complementary services provided vary from establishment to establishment.
The subsector is organized into three groups: (1) traveler accommodation, (2) recreational accommodation, and (3)
rooming and boarding houses, dormitories, and workers’ camps. The Traveler Accommodation industry group
includes establishments that primarily provide traditional types of lodging services. This group includes hotels,
motels, and bed-and-breakfast inns. In addition to lodging, these establishments may provide a range of other
services to their guests. The RV (Recreational Vehicle) Parks and Recreational Camps industry group includes
establishments that operate lodging facilities primarily designed to accommodate outdoor enthusiasts. Included are
travel trailer campsites, recreational vehicle parks, and outdoor adventure retreats. The Rooming and Boarding
Houses, Dormitories, and Workers' Camps industry group includes establishments providing temporary or longer-
term accommodations, that for the period of occupancy, may serve as a principal residence. Board (i.e., meals) may
be provided but is not essential.
Establishments that manage short-stay accommodation establishments (e.g., hotels and motels) on a contractual
basis are classified in this subsector if they both manage the operation and provide the operating staff. Such
establishments are classified based on the type of facility managed and operated.

Sector 81--Other Services (except Public Administration)T
The Sector as a Whole
The Other Services (except Public Administration) sector comprises establishments engaged in providing services
not specifically provided for elsewhere in the classification system. Establishments in this sector are primarily
engaged in activities such as equipment and machinery repairing, promoting or administering religious activities,
grantmaking, advocacy, and providing drycleaning and laundry services, personal care services, death care services,
pet care services, photofinishing services, temporary parking services, and dating services.
Private households that engage in employing workers on or about the premises in activities primarily concerned
with the operation of the household are included in this sector.
Excluded from this sector are establishments primarily engaged in retailing new equipment and also performing
repairs and general maintenance on equipment. These establishments are classified in Sector 44-45, Retail Trade.
811 Repair and MaintenanceT
Industries in the Repair and Maintenance subsector restore machinery, equipment, and other products to working
order. These establishments also typically provide general or routine maintenance (i.e., servicing) on such products
to ensure they work efficiently and to prevent breakdown and unnecessary repairs.
The NAICS structure for this subsector brings together most types of repair and maintenance establishments and
categorizes them based on production processes (i.e., on the type of repair and maintenance activity performed, and
the necessary skills, expertise, and processes that are found in different repair and maintenance establishments).
This NAICS classification does not delineate between repair services provided to businesses versus those that serve
households. Although some industries primarily serve either businesses or households, separation by class of
customer is limited by the fact that many establishments serve both. Establishments repairing computers and
consumer electronics products are two examples of such overlap.
The Repair and Maintenance subsector does not include all establishments that do repair and maintenance. For
example, a substantial amount of repair is done by establishments that also manufacture machinery, equipment, and
other goods. These establishments are included in the Manufacturing sector in NAICS. In addition, repair of
transportation equipment is often provided by or based at transportation facilities, such as airports and seaports, and
these activities are included in the Transportation and Warehousing sector. A particularly unique situation exists
with repair of buildings. Plumbing, electrical installation and repair, painting and decorating, and other
construction-related establishments are often involved in performing installation or other work on new construction
as well as providing repair services on existing structures. While some specialize in repair, it is difficult to
distinguish between the two types and all are included in the Construction sector.
Excluded from this subsector are establishments primarily engaged in rebuilding or remanufacturing machinery
and equipment. These are classified in Sector 31-33, Manufacturing. Also excluded are retail establishments that
provide after-sale services and repair. These are classified in Sector 44-45, Retail Trade.
8111 Automotive Repair and MaintenanceT
This industry group comprises establishments involved in providing repair and maintenance services for
automotive vehicles, such as passenger cars, trucks, and vans, and all trailers. Establishments in this industry group

Sector 92--Public AdministrationT
The Sector as a Whole
The Public Administration sector consists of establishments of federal, state, and local government agencies that
administer, oversee, and manage public programs and have executive, legislative, or judicial authority over other
institutions within a given area. These agencies also set policy, create laws, adjudicate civil and criminal legal
cases, and provide for public safety and for national defense. In general, government establishments in the Public
Administration sector oversee governmental programs and activities that are not performed by private
establishments. Establishments in this sector typically are engaged in the organization and financing of the
production of public goods and services, most of which are provided for free or at prices that are not economically
significant.
Government establishments also engage in a wide range of productive activities covering not only public goods
and services but also individual goods and services similar to those produced in sectors typically identified with
private-sector establishments. In general, ownership is not a criterion for classification in NAICS. Therefore,
government establishments engaged in the production of private-sector-like goods and services should be classified
in the same industry as private-sector establishments engaged in similar activities.
As a practical matter, it is difficult to identify separate establishment detail for many government agencies. To the
extent that separate establishment records are available, the administration of governmental programs is classified in
Sector 92, Public Administration, while the operation of governmental programs is classified elsewhere in NAICS
based on the activities performed. For example, the governmental administrative authority for an airport is
classified in Industry 92612, Regulation and Administration of Transportation Programs, while operating the airport
is classified in Industry 48811, Airport Operations. When separate records for multi-establishment companies are
not available to distinguish between the administration of a governmental program and the operation of it, the
establishment is classified in Sector 92, Public Administration.
Examples of government-provided goods and services that are classified in sectors other than Public
Administration include: schools, classified in Sector 61, Educational Services; hospitals, classified in Subsector 622,
Hospitals; establishments operating transportation facilities, classified in Sector 48-49, Transportation and
Warehousing; the operation of utilities, classified in Sector 22, Utilities; and the Government Printing Office,
classified in Subsector 323, Printing and Related Support Activities.
