Wholesale and retail trade and repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles

Division 45 covers the trade, servicing and repair of cars and motorcycles, plus parts. It has four groups: sale of vehicles (45.1), maintenance and repair (45.2), parts and accessories (45.3) and motorcycles (45.4). A few large dealers and importers run new-vehicle sales, but most companies are small garages and parts traders. Margins on the trade are thin.

3,694 companies in Latvia are classified under NACE code 45.
