This 1800miti.Com, Inc. Commerce Directory derives its organization from what use to be the U.S. Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system of Business and Service Classification. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) has replaced the U.S. Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system. NAICS was developed jointly by the U.S., Canada, and Mexico to provide new comparability in statistics about business activity across North America.
If you would like, use this Link to find the appropriate category for your facility or service at U.S. Census Bureau NAICS Search site.
Our Directory uses a system based on this NAICS system for classifying all businesses, establishments, organizations, and professionals. This classification system is constructed and based on a single economic concept:
Economic units that use like processes to produce goods or services are grouped together.
This "production-oriented" system allows itself to an easily constructed Menu Driven Directory.
An economic unit may be found in more than one Section or Sub-Section, or Category, or Sub-Category, etc.
This North American Industry Classification System employed by this Directory uses a six digit hierarchical coding system to classify all economic activity into twenty industry sectors. Five sectors are mainly goods-producing sectors and fifteen are entirely services-producing sectors.

Our Directory uses a system for classifying business establishments, organizations, and professionals. Our classification system is constructed and based on a single economic concept. Economic units that use like processes to produce goods or services are grouped together. This "production-oriented" system allows itself to an easily constructed menu driven Directory. An economic unit may be found in more than one Section or Sub-Section, or Category, or Sub-Category, etc.. (see below)
(Example)
If your Industry is in the Business of "example, Fish Products", and your primary Products are Packaged Frozen Seafood. However you also have Fishing Trawlers which fish for the "Fish" which you process into the Frozen Seafood. Then your Primary Classification on the Commerce Network would be the Section Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting, Sub-Section, Fishing, Hunting and Trapping. Your Company would also be found in the Section, Manufacturing, and the Sub-Section Food Manufacturing.
