31699

Analysis

NAICS 31699 is the 2022 NAICS industry for other leather and allied product manufacturing, part of 3169 (Other Leather and Allied Product Manufacturing).

It has only one more detailed code, 316990, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.

County Business Patterns counts 633 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 11,305 people at an average annual payroll of $43,323 per employee (11th percentile of national industries). 50% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which is close to the national mix.

Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 18% and employment rose 0%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.

Its goods appear in 102 statistical lines of the US tariff schedule, mostly under headings 4202 (trunks, suitcases, vanity cases, attache cases, briefcases…), 4602 (basketwork, wickerwork and other articles, made directly to…) and 6406 (parts of footwear (including uppers whether or not attached…). That link is how import data is matched to domestic producers, for example in trade-remedy cases.
