Which code does this activity belong in?
Dairy Product (except Frozen) Manufacturing covers establishments that produce unfrozen dairy products from raw or processed milk, including cheese, yogurt, butter, and fluid milk products, as well as dairy substitutes made from soybeans or other nondairy substances in unfrozen form. The key distinction from Ice Cream and Frozen Dessert Manufacturing is the absence of freezing in the production process; establishments that freeze dairy or dairy substitute mixtures into ice cream, frozen yogurt, or other frozen desserts are classified separately, even when produced by the same company.
