Wholesale Of Grain Unmanufactured Tobacco Seeds And Animal Feeds

Details for Wholesale Of Grain Unmanufactured Tobacco Seeds And Animal Feeds

The wider SIC framework has been part of UK business statistics since the 1940s, and Companies House previously used the older 4-digit SIC 2003 codes before moving during 2008–2009 to the present 5-digit SIC 2007 structure, which is aligned with European NACE Rev. 2 standards. This classification covers companies whose practical work is best described by the official label wholesale of grain, unmanufactured tobacco, seeds and animal feeds.

In plain English, it is likely to include retailers, ecommerce traders, catalogue sellers, online shops, marketplace merchants and consumer goods businesses, with day-to-day activity often involving product sourcing, merchandising, customer orders, fulfilment, returns and direct-to-consumer trading. As of June 2026, 46210 ranks 389th out of 731 five-digit SIC codes, with 1,501 UK companies registered under it, making it a mid-range classification rather than a mass-market filing choice. The four-code limit at Companies House is useful here, as many businesses use one code for their main trade and additional SIC codes for secondary services, side operations or closely related commercial functions.

The short official label is deliberately compact, so the real-world businesses behind it may describe themselves using broader phrases such as wholesale of grain, unmanufactured tobacco, seeds and animal feeds services, specialist wholesale of grain, unmanufactured tobacco, seeds and animal feeds providers, operators in related supply chains, or companies supporting customers who need this form of commercial activity. The classification is especially valuable when comparing suppliers, prospecting for customers, segmenting a database, reviewing competition or checking how a company presents its principal line of business on the public record. For search and data work, the wording should be understood broadly: companies may use different everyday terms for the same activity, including trade names, sector jargon, abbreviated service descriptions and customer-facing language.

The code therefore works best as a structured indicator of economic activity rather than a complete profile of the company, because many organisations evolve, add services or reorganise after incorporation. Taken together with location, age, filing history and other SIC selections, this code can help build a more rounded view of the market in which the company appears to operate.
