Analysis

County Business Patterns counts 20,809 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 307,764 people at an average annual payroll of $54,876 per employee (24th percentile of national industries). 61% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which marks it as a small-business industry.
Across its national industries Census lists 68 index entries; typical ones are apparel folding and packaging services, automobile show managers and auctioneers, independent.
It splits into 3 more detailed codes. The largest by establishments is 56199 (All Other Support Services) with 12,567.
Its more detailed codes are 56191 Packaging and Labeling Services (1,972 establishments), 56192 Convention and Trade Show Organizers (6,270 establishments) and 56199 All Other Support Services (12,567 establishments).
Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments grew 3% and employment rose 4%. 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.
