The service provides the classification of economic activities / industries in the NACE 2.1 revision, allowing users to conveniently browse and search for business activity types according to the latest version. Additionally, there is an option to switch to the previous NACE 2.0 revision, ensuring an easy transition between the two versions. In the data search tool, users can search for an industry by the NACE code or a fragment of the code description in the respective revision (NACE 2.1 or NACE 2.0). By selecting the appropriate NACE code, a list of companies registered in the Lursoft IT database with that NACE code is available via the "Companies" link. By clicking the "SIC" button, users can view the UK's industry classification and browse companies from the UK, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia that match the selected industry.
