Company Research Guide

This guide identifies sources for basic business and company information, but not specific resources for broad business disciplines such as accounting, marketing or management.

Company Identification / Profiles

Most company research initially begins by verifying basic information such as the company name, contact information, products and services sold, and the number of employees. Company profiles provide more detailed information such as company history, sales figures, major competitors, and top executive officers. The following list of directory resources may be helpful when looking for basic company information, in-depth profiles, or a combination of both. (Might be available at non-law Georgetown libraries.)
