Which code does this activity belong in?
Meat and Meat Product Merchant Wholesalers distribute fresh and refrigerated meats and meat products, excluding those that are canned or packaged frozen. The key distinction is the product form: establishments distributing canned or packaged frozen meat products belong in Packaged Frozen Food Merchant Wholesalers, while those wholesaling poultry and poultry products are classified in Poultry and Poultry Product Merchant Wholesalers. Fish and seafood wholesalers, though animal protein sources, are classified separately in Fish and Seafood Merchant Wholesalers.
