The Global 5000 database of the largest companies in the world continues to provide B2B marketers a timely, continually updated source of business information for business lead generation, CRM systems and ABM activity.
For the month of August 2019, 19 new companies were added to the Global 5000 database. This brings our total new adds over the last 12 months to 227. During the month, 635 company records were updated.
Every month we complete a series of updates so that we cycle thru the entire database annually. In this process there are always a number of changes and major deals in the M&A world. Companies with a marketing database that don’t follow this level of activity are truly missing out in their sales and marketing efforts.
Some of the top companies we added during August included:
- Jinchuan Group – an $33 billion Chinese mining & materials company
- CoAdvantage is a $4.6 billion HR solutions company
- Commercial Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam
- Cocokara Fine – the Japanese retail pharmacy group
- Financial Street Holding Co., Ltd. is a Chinese real estate development company
And some of the notable firms we removed from the active file include the following:
- CJ CheilJedang is a subsidiary of CJ Corp – a current Global 5000 company
- Swiss International Air Lines AG is a subsidiary of Lufthansa
- Lansing Trade Group was acquired the The Anderson’s
- Air Berlin has shut down
- Sequa Corporation is reported as part of Carlyle
