The claims are unverifiable. The references do not contain the cited material even the name of this company. Iniciativass (talk) 18:26, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Do not agree with the nomination. The company is mentioned in reliable source here. Article needs major update, but looks to me that is passes WP:GNG and WP:CORP. --BiH (talk) 23:46, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Nom seems perhaps mistaken. Explanation for at least one of nominator's complaints is that the name of the company is found in the 2nd, continuation, page of an on-line article, which you wouldn't find in a quick text search of the linked source. E.g. this continuation page of a New York Times article cited in the article provides quote about the company exporting to 24 countries, and actually quite a bit more. I added a direct link to the continuation page into the reference, though the reference was NOT wrong. Also, reference #11 and other references are off-line sources. Off-line sources are FINE, we do not require on-line sourcing of everything. Those sources are in fact verifiable, just requiring more work than simply looking on-line in the open free internet (could well be verifiable behind paywalls, and definitely verifiable at a library with a hard copy). So, although I am not reviewing all the sources to find proof that every assertion is indeed supported, I expect everything is or was supported. --doncram 03:13, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
