There are 45,396 companies in ISIC section I (accommodation and food service activities) in Colombia, 24,848 active. The section is 2.5% of the 1,816,257 Colombian records we hold from the RUES + Supersociedades (datos.gov.co), extracted 2026-10-02. The largest divisions are 56 (food and beverage service activities, 34,290) and 55 (accommodation, 11,106). By department, Bogotá D.C. leads with 15,016 (33% of the section), followed by Antioquia (7,084) and Valle del Cauca (4,039).
Hotels, hostels, restaurants, bars and catering companies. The section is retail-like in volume: thousands of small incorporated restaurants, especially in Brazil and Mexico. Buyers are POS and payments, delivery platforms, food distributors, booking software and hospitality supply. Hotel chains register one company per property in several countries. In Colombia, rows carry the ISIC division (Colombian CIIU classes are national, so there is no ISIC class); size is known for 2%; 1.2% have a corporate e-mail domain (Supersociedades filers and two chambers); 4,179 were registered in the 12 months before the extraction. Department is the chamber's seat for most Colombian rows, and status comes from renewal and liquidation signals rather than a single flag.
