The same principle is applied for combined trade and repair.

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.
