NOGA division 10: Manufacture of food products

Where it sits

Section: C Manufacturing
Division: 10 Manufacture of food products

Its name in four languages

Deutsch: Herstellung von Nahrungs- und Futtermitteln
Français: Industries alimentaires
Italiano: Produzione di prodotti alimentari
English: Manufacture of food products

What it includes

This division includes the processing of products of agriculture, forestry and fishing into food for humans or animals, and includes the production of various intermediate products that are not directly food products. The activity often generates associated products of greater or lesser value (for example, hides from slaughtering, or oilcake from oil production).
This division is organised by activities dealing with different kinds of products: meat, fish, fruits and vegetables, fats and oils, milk products, grain mill products, animal feed and other food products. Production can be carried out for own account, as well as for third parties, as in custom slaughtering.
Some activities are considered manufacturing even though there is retail sale of the products in the producers’ own shop (for example, those activities performed in bakeries, pastry shops and prepared meat shops which sell their own production). However, where the processing is minimal and does not lead to a real transformation, the unit is classified to section G.

It also includes

This division also includes the manufacture of liquids considered food or that use similar manufacturing processes (for example milk and fruit juice / concentrate).

What it excludes

This division excludes the preparation of meals for immediate consumption, see division 56.

What a NOGA code is, and how to find a company's code

Company counts cover the 145,068 of 782,904 active companies in the commercial register that Prospex has coded so far, from their registered purpose and website, so they are a floor. Geneva is 93% coded, because its cantonal register publishes a code per company; the other cantons 11% so far. They are Prospex's codes, not the code the BFS assigns in its business register (BUR). Codes, labels and notes: Swiss Federal Statistical Office (BFS), NOGA 2025, through the I14Y interoperability platform and the KUBB coding tool.
