"Næring" is often used in the meaning "næringsgren" i.e. "branch of industry" in English. See definition below:

business code

Explanation:
Although this is only an educated guess: yes, this should be as simple as **business code**

two pertinent Norwegian sources below (the second one seems to confirm your supposition):

third Norwegian source below which should help to confirm your supposition:

could also be **business activity code** (as codified by the Norwegian Central Statistics Bureau according to the U.N. ISIC - International Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities

I omitted closing brackets in my above comment:

As I do not know Norwegian, I withdraw my above suggestion for translation of the term **næringscode**, in favour of Bjørnar Magnussen. At the time I posted my suggestion, no other answer had been submitted as yet.
