Section G, wholesale and retail trade; repair of motor vehicles, holds 434,876 Chilean company records as of 2026-08-03, 427,896 of them active. By region, Metropolitana de Santiago leads with 221,317 (51% of the section), followed by Valparaíso (40,240) and Biobío (29,392). The largest divisions are 47 (retail trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles, 276,153) and 46 (wholesale trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles, 108,150); one further division completes it. That is 12.8% of the Chile registry in this build.
The largest section everywhere. Division 46 (wholesale) is the B2B half: distributors and importers that payments, trade-finance, logistics and B2B-marketplace vendors target. Division 47 (retail) is the merchant universe for payments, POS and e-commerce enablement. 45 holds dealerships and repair shops. Filter by division first; the section total is too broad for any single campaign. In Chile, 100% of these rows carry an ISIC class; size is known for 46%; the registry publishes no website or e-mail; 53,314 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.
