Over 300 data fields including:

• Establishment Data: The NETS Database has over 300 fields that uniquely describe each establishment from 1990 to 2010. These variables include business type, location information, employment, sales, Dun and Bradstreet ratings and payment performance, and special indicators like minority- or women-ownership and whether the establishment imports or exports.
• Corporate Affiliation: Headquarters identifiers (HQDuns) are available in every year, as well as an indicator if there has been a headquarters (ownership) change. In addition, the numbers of related establishments or establishments reporting to a headquarters are also computed.
• Relocation Behavior: Every significant establishment relocation is chronicled with 30 fields that tell us the move year, SIC, origin and destination, distance of move, employment and sales in the move year, type of location and whether the establishment is still active in 2011.
