Standards note: SIC/NAICS are assigned to an establishment (a single operating location). Large enterprises may operate multiple establishments with different primary activities and different codes.
Operations & footprint
Public-facing materials indicate meat processing and distribution activity. In enterprise governance settings, classification should be validated at the facility (establishment) level to reflect the primary on-site economic activity.
Common products/services (illustrative):
- Beef and pork processing (slaughtering / fabrication / packing)
- Distribution to retail and foodservice channels
- Cold chain logistics and packaging support (may vary by facility)
Evidence signals used for classification
Audit-ready profiles attach page-level citations and a facility-specific rationale.
- Primary sources: official establishment-level service/product pages (when available)
- Secondary sources: legacy government datasets (e.g., registrations), reputable directories
- Operational cues: facility type, stated services, product categories, distribution model
Facility breakdown principle: one plant may align cleanly to a single NAICS (e.g., 311611), while another location may align to a different processing/packaging activity (e.g., 311612). Enterprise pages should not flatten these differences when “Audit-ready” is claimed.

FAQ
- What happens if a government dataset disagrees with SICCODE’s classification?
We apply a conflict protocol. Establishment-level activity stated on the official company website (Primary evidence) can override self-reported or legacy codes in government datasets (Secondary evidence) when the secondary record is not updated within 24 months. If credible sources still conflict, the record remains Medium Confidence with a visible Conflict Note until manual verification is completed. - How do you decide the “primary” SIC/NAICS for an address?
We apply a 51% rule: the primary code is assigned to the activity generating the majority of value/revenue at that specific address (or the best operational proxy when revenue data is unavailable). - Why doesn’t the subsidiary automatically inherit the parent’s codes?
Parent enterprises often span multiple lines of business. This profile applies a “code creep” guardrail so the subsidiary record stays aligned to its documented beef/pork activity scope unless evidence supports additional activities.
