The North American Product Classification System (NAPCS) is a classification that organizes goods and services throughout the economy in a systematic fashion. The portion of NAPCS which is presented here represents the products of selected service-producing industries. These classes are considered provisional but are currently being used in the collection of product data in the annual service industry surveys and provide the basis of the commodity dimension of the revised Canadian System of National Accounts (CSNA). The development of NAPCS has been a joint project of the national statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. The purpose of the project has been to develop a unified standard for products which would allow comparisons of data among the three participating countries. It will also facilitate integration of data at Statistics Canada.
