Why 6 digits?
HSIC subclasses are 6 digits. The first four match the international ISIC class; Hong Kong adds a two-digit local suffix for finer detail, especially across its import and export trade, so a code steps from a 4-digit class straight to a 6-digit subclass. More on the HSIC structure.
This activity involves the wholesale distribution of umbrellas, including both regular and sun umbrellas. It encompasses the purchase and resale of these products to retailers or other businesses rather than direct sales to consumers.
