Some options are:

  • Mergent Online:
  • Click Enter Mergent Online. You'll see the search box on the right allows to search by classification. Click on the link to "use code lookup" to browse industries or if you know the code, enter it directly into the search box. Click on the search button to retrieve companies listed by the selected code.
  • LexisNexis Academic:
  • Under Search by Content Type, select Dossier (Company, Executive, & Industry) under the Companies section. Click Create a Company List. There is an option for SIC or NAICS Code.
  • ReferenceUSA:
  • Hover over U.S. Businesses and then click search. Click on the Custom Search tab and then click Business Type. Search by SIC/NAICS code or Major Industry Group to create a list of businesses in that industry. Reference USA may have more results because of listings of individual store/company locations. Other databases may just list the parent company. This database is best for local companies.
