Before I try to answer this, could you explain what "transportation group", "house group" and "goods group" are intended to mean?

These ( transportation and house group) are some kinds of goods group. for example; the costs of the food group is more than the costs of the transportation group. This text is related to economics.

Sorry, that does not help me because I do not understand what "goods group" means.

(See my reply in your other thread.)

I meant "commodity group" from "goods group", I think that this term is more natural, isn't it?

"commodity group" does seem to be a more widely used term. I'm afraid I'm really not sure if it is suitable in your case. I would not naturally call houses and transportation "commodities", but I think you would need to check with an expert in this subject area. Another possibility, that I think I mentioned in another thread, is "market sector".
