What are NAICS codes?

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system. It has a hierarchical structure, dividing the economy into 20 broad sectors. Within each of these sectors, economic activities are further organized into narrower categories.

For example, this is a snapshot of the NAICS hierarchy for the Resorts industry:

72 Accommodation and food services
721 Accommodation services
7211 Traveller accommodation
72111 Hotels (except casino hotels) and motels
721113 Resorts

NAICS codes may be used in some library databases to search for industry reports, company profiles, or to create lists of companies.
