Industry

The industry within which the business operates.

Multiple distinct classification systems have been created to describe a business's activity (such as NAICS, SIC, and MCC). Rather than selecting one, Enigma provides multiple different classifications for each business via the industry_type, industry_code, and industry_desc fields. We also provide a non-hierarchical enigma_industry_description that gives a more colloquial indication of the business's primary activity, useful when standard systems like NAICS lack the expressiveness to distinguish between similar business types.

GraphQL type: Industry

Example
