# Business Classifications

Fairmarkit Business Classifications may be provided by your organization during import and/or sync with the Fairmarkit system, or may be set by a non-registered supplier via their registration. Classifications can be seen and searched when you select suppliers to invite them to your events. If you have purchased a Supplier.io subscription independently or through Fairmarkit, the data from SIO will also be synced here.
