Due to the business structure, various classifications apply. For tax-payments purposes – IVU & state commercial taxes – it is acceptable to use the Bread & Bakery Manufacturing general classification (31181). It is requested, however, to attach a detailed report to the tax filings for the general census benefit.

By January 7, 2009 the Office of Management and Budget issued a special notice document announcing possible changes for the 2012 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS, 2009). This document does not alter any of the included classifications.
