SIC code 12000 is the UK Standard Industrial Classification for Manufacture of tobacco products. It falls under SIC section C — Manufacturing, division 12. Companies record it at Companies House to describe what they do, and it is one of up to four SIC codes a company can hold.
Manufacture of tobacco products — the makers of cigarettes, cigars, rolling and pipe tobacco. In the UK this is a tightly regulated sector held by a very small number of large multinational tobacco companies, with little room for small entrants given duty, licensing and packaging rules. Stands somewhat apart, though it links to agricultural tobacco growing upstream and specialist tobacconist retail downstream.
