Comprehensive, but "best before" expired on some parts such as Finland which I was able to check for myself, information on more than 13,000 companies and over 21.000 brands around the world. Transnationale does not discern between brand and product.

They report social and environmental behaviour, financial data, list of brands, membership to the most influential lobbies, public relations and opinion making, managers name and position, shareholders and subsidiaries, plants locations and offshore centers, brand and corporate image management.

It seems that as of 2012 transnationale no longer requires membership to access all of the data.
