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 September 2020, 19 new companies were added to the Global 5000 database. This brings our total new adds over the last 12 months to 245. During the month, 662 company records were updated as we continue our regular, daily updating process.
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 June included:
- PPF, the Dutch holding company
- iA Financial Group of Canada
- Sui Northern Gas Pipelines of Pakistan
- Aannemingsmaatschappij Cfe NV of Belgium
- Toromont Industries Ltd, the electronic equipment maker from Canada
And some of the notable firms we removed from the active file include the following:
- Calsonic Kansei Corporation merged with Magneti Marelli
- Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation now part of Mitsubishi Chemical
- Maines Paper & Food Service filed bankruptcy and sold the business
- Andhra Bank Ltd. merged with Union Bank of India
- Schwan Food was acquired by CJ CheilJedang
