Industry Selection

• Use this resource to select an industry and learn about the products and services it provides:
• NAICS (North American Industry Classification System)  https://www.census.gov/cgi-bin/sssd/naics/naicsrch?chart=2017
  • (Select the number next to the industry to see its subsectors, e.g., select 52 to see Finance and Insurance.
  • Select that same number again to read about the industry as a whole or select a sub-category. For example, Mining is 21, and Oil and Gas Extraction, a sub-category, is 211.)
