Statistics at enterprise level

The structural business statistics for transportation and storage are compiled both at local KAU level and enterprise level. Figures at the enterprise level will usually deviate from figures at the local KAU level. This is due to the fact that the enterprises are registered in the industry subclass that comprises the main part of the activity of the enterprise, and therefore may be registered in a different industry than some of the local KAUs.

Important announcement: Transition to a new industry classification

A new version of the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC2007) was implemented in January 2009. The figures from the most detailed level in this classification are not always directly comparable with previous years. The new Standard Industrial Classification is available here.
