By Enrich.chat Editorial. Updated October 22, 2026.

**Short answer:** NAICS 513120 is the code for Periodical Publishers, in sector 51: Information. The companies counted under it are mostly very small: 61% have 50 or fewer employees, and 47% are headquartered in the United States.

## What is NAICS 513120?

NAICS 513120 is the code for Periodical Publishers. It belongs to sector 51: Information. NAICS, the North American Industry Classification System, is the standard U.S. government agencies use to sort businesses by what they mainly do, and each digit narrows the category. Most of the companies counted also carry SIC 2721, Periodicals-publishing and printing, in the older SIC system (78%). NAICS is a North American system, so companies outside the US, Canada and Mexico are placed in it by classification.

- 61% of the companies counted have 50 or fewer employees, and the middle one is in the 11 to 50 range.
- The largest group is headquartered in the United States (47%). Within the US, New York is the biggest state (13%).
