Which code does this activity belong in?
Food supplement stores focus exclusively on retailing vitamins, nutrition supplements, and body enhancing supplements. Establishments retailing other specialized health and personal care merchandise such as convalescent supplies, prosthetic devices, hearing aids, and sick room supplies are classified in All Other Health and Personal Care Stores instead. The distinction turns on whether the primary business is selling food supplements versus selling medical devices and supplies for health management.
