What do translation companies do?
Translation companies translate technical, legal, medical and marketing texts, localise websites and software, and provide sworn translations for official use. Their customers are manufacturers, law firms, public authorities, agencies and publishers, and much of the work is done by networks of freelance translators.
Our data comes from the business registers of 32 European countries. SIC has no code of its own for translation companies: they sit in SIC code 7389 (business services, not elsewhere classified), so within that we select them on the CompanyData industry label for translators and interpreters.
