ISIC section H: Transportation and storage. 130,073 records from the RES (datos.gob.cl) + SII nómina, 128,725 active, data as of 2026-08-03.
Section H, transportation and storage, holds 130,073 Chilean company records as of 2026-08-03, 128,725 of them active. By region, Metropolitana de Santiago leads with 61,111 (47% of the section), followed by Valparaíso (13,091) and Biobío (9,976). The largest divisions are 49 (land transport and transport via pipelines, 107,081) and 52 (warehousing and support activities for transportation, 19,297); 3 further divisions complete it. That is 3.8% of the Chile registry in this build.
Road freight carriers dominate division 49 and are the long tail; freight forwarders, customs brokers, port and airport operators register under 52. Fleet telematics, fuel cards, insurance, freight marketplaces and cross-border logistics vendors use this section. Owner-driver carriers appear as companies only when incorporated, which varies by country. In Chile, 100% of these rows carry an ISIC class; size is known for 45%; the registry publishes no website or e-mail; 13,021 were registered in the 12 months before the extraction. An economic activity is registered for about half of Chilean RUTs, so this section undercounts companies that never registered one with the SII.
