What do craft companies do?
Craft companies are workshops and small manufacturers that make ceramics, candles, baskets, decorations, artificial flowers and other goods by hand or in short runs, and some supply hobby materials. They sell through craft fairs, gift shops, home stores and online marketplaces, and in many regions village workshops and cooperatives live from traditional crafts.
Our data comes from the business registers of 52 countries. SIC has no code of its own for craft companies: they sit in SIC codes 5945 (hobby, toy, and game shops), 5949 (sewing, needlework, and piece goods stores) and 3999 (manufacturing industries, not elsewhere classified), so within that we select them on the CompanyData industry label for craft workshops and craft supply shops. In NACE, the European code those registers use, 7,889 of them (81%) sit in classes 47.51 (retail sale of textiles in specialised stores) and 47.65 (retail sale of games and toys in specialised stores), part of division 47 (retail trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles).
