New York, February 24, 2003
Thomas Register®, the world’s most comprehensive online resource for industrial supply-chain purchasing, today announced it has expanded its information offering with Yahoo®Small Business. The expansion provides Yahoo! Small Business customers with greater access to Thomas Register’s industrial purchasing information.


As part of the expansion, additional search terms have been added to the existing terms that link small businesses searching for industrial product information to Thomas Register’s up-to-date supplier information, online catalogs and Computer Aided Design (CAD) drawings. Small businesses searching for industrial parts, components and services will gain more complete access to a comprehensive list of information on relevant suppliers, including specific products and services offered, direct links to company contact information and online information and content.

“This expanded offering is a win for Yahoo! Small Business customers as well as industrial suppliers on Thomas Register®,” said Pat Daloisio, associate publisher of Thomas Register®. “It allows small businesses to access vital supply-chain purchasing information in real-time and expands our suppliers’ exposure to potential buyers at the point of purchase.”

“We are pleased to provide Thomas Register’s comprehensive industrial purchasing information database to our small businesses,” said Bud Rosenthal, vice president, Yahoo!
