What it includes
- This type includes the intermediation of freight transport, by bringing clients and service providers together for a fee or commission, without the intermediary providing the freight transport services that are intermediated. These intermediation activities can be carried out on digital platforms or through non-digital channels (including face-to-face, door-to-door, telephone, mail, and so on). The fee or commission can be received from either the client or the provider of the freight transport service. Revenue for the intermediation activities can include other sources of income (for example, revenues from the sale of advertising space).
- This type includes:
- rail, road, ship and aircraft freight brokerage
- operation of platforms for intermediation of freight transport services
What it excludes

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.
