The importance of business location when you are trying to find information on a company should not be underestimated since many resources organize their information according to geographical criteria. Coverage in these directories may range from national or regional to multi- or international. As a rule of thumb, the more focused the publication is on one location, the more likely it is that it will include smaller-sized companies in that area.
Unfortunately, the more intricate the organizational structure of the company, the more complex it usually is to uncover details about its individual parts. For example, the company may operate in countries which differ from the place where its headquarters is located. Alternatively, the business could be a multinational or transnational with multiple main offices. Narrowing your search by location will take away much of the guesswork.
