The SIC code for Retail trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles is 47
This division includes the resale (sale without transformation) of new and used goods mainly to the general public for personal or household consumption or utilization, by shops, department stores, stalls, mail-order houses, hawkers and peddlers, consumer cooperatives etc.
Retail trade is classified first by type of sale outlet (retail trade in stores: groups 471 to 477; retail trade not in stores: groups 478 and 479).
Retail trade in stores includes the retail sale of used goods (class 4774).
For retail sale in stores, there exists a further distinction between specialized retail sale (groups 472 to 477) and non-specialized retail sale (group 471).
The above groups are further subdivided by the range of products sold.
Sale not via stores is subdivided according to the forms of trade, such as retail sale via stalls and markets (group 478) and other non-store retail sale, e.g.mail order, door-to-door, by vending machines etc.
(group 479).
The goods sold in this division are limited to goods usually referred to as consumer goods or retail goods.
Therefore goods not usually entering the retail trade, such as cereal grains, ores, industrial machinery etc., are excluded.
This division also includes units engaged primarily in selling to the general public, from displayed goods, products such as personal computers, stationery, paint or timber, although these sales may not be for personal or household use.
Some processing of goods may be involved, but only incidental to selling, e.g.sorting or repackaging of goods, installation of a domestic appliance etc.
This division also includes the retail sale by commission agents and activities of retail auctioning houses.
