Overview

When students, job candidates, business executives, historians and investors need accurate and detailed information on the development of any of the world's 4550 largest and most influential companies, they need the ""International Directory of Company Histories"". This multi-volume work brings together histories of companies that are a leading influence in a particular industry or geographic location. Each three- to five-page entry is meticulously detailed with facts gathered from popular magazines, academic periodicals, books, annual reports and the archives of the companies themselves. Entries provide information on founders, expansions and losses, labour/management actions, NAIC codes, key dates, ticker symbol, principal subsidiaries, principal divisions, principal operating units, principle competitors and other significant milestones - all peppered with statistics, dates and names of key players. Volumes 1-6 are organized alphabetically by major industries; while Volume 7 and subsequent volumes are arranged alphabetically by company name within each volume. Each volume includes a cumulative index to companies and personal names. The histories were compiled from publicly accessible sources, as well as from material supplied by the companies themselves. Entries on companies that have had major changes since they were last profiled may be selected for updating.
