  • CB Insights - also includes Business Relationships  on company profiles. Categories include: client, distributor, licensee, licensor, partner, sponsor, sponsored, vendor,
  • LSEG Workspace - use the value chains command to identify customers and suppliers; enter the desired ticker symbol followed by VCHAINS.
  • Bloomberg (see access details) has data on a company's suppliers and customers.
    • Use the SPLC function for a specific company -- e.g., to find Merck's suppliers, customers, and peers you'd type: MRK <Equity> SPLC <GO>.
  • Factset Revere - available via WRDS (see access details). Use the Relationships subset.

Use ABI/INFORM Global and Business Source Complete for articles from trade publications which may mention a company's supply chain.
