Finding company information.
Answer
-
Company information is available from many different sources including; news websites and newspapers, a company's own website and online databases held by the library.
- All UK Public Limited companies are required to publish their accounts and annual reports online, so the company's own website is often a great place to start your search.

Mintel: Market research reports, trends and consumer data in a wide range of areas.
ProQuest One Business: Full text academic journal articles, market research reports, newspaper articles and e-books.
FAME: Financial information for major UK companies and peer comparisons.
