Which code does this activity belong in?

Commercial bakeries manufacture fresh and frozen bread and bread-type rolls as their primary activity. The boundary with Retail Bakeries lies in production method; retail bakeries make products from flour on premises for immediate consumption, while commercial bakeries manufacture these items as their main business regardless of retail point-of-sale activity. Commercial bakeries differ from Frozen Cakes, Pies, and Other Pastries Manufacturing by focusing on bread products rather than frozen dessert items like cakes, pies, and doughnuts.
