The five questions we asked
Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.
- 1“Best suppliers of industrial wire and cable in California”
- 2“Who supplies shielded multi-conductor control cable in California”
- 3“I need a California industrial wire and cable partner for a new factory automation line, who should I talk to”
- 4“Top industrial wire and cable suppliers in California for OEM electrical engineering buyers”
- 5“Which California industrial wire and cable distributors can provide custom-cut lengths with same-day delivery”
- 6“List 20 industrial wire and cable companies in California with their specialties.”the roster question
Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
