The United States Census Bureau created a classification system for business entities called the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Several company databases and industry research databases use these to organize their information, and it is useful to know these codes when you are looking for industry reports. These codes start at 2 numbers to identify broad industry group and move to 6 to identify specific industries.
Example Codes:
721 - Accomodation
721120 - Casino Hotels
713 - Amusement, Gambling, and Recreation Industries
713210 - Casinos (except Casino Hotels)
Provides thoroughly researched, accurate and current business information, including economic, demographic and government data on over 700 American industries. Whether your company requires a better understanding of market conditions and forecasts; whether you need a clearer picture of a supply chain, or whether you need to keep abreast of competitor activity in your industry, IBISWorld’s comprehensive reports will keep you informed.
