Trans Canada Store and Restaurant Supplies
Sounds to me too much like an advertisment and Google doesn't show that this company is notable ("Trans Canada Store and Restaurant Supplies" doesn't get any hits, ""Trans Canada Store & Restaurant Supplies" gets 7 hits) Optimale  Gu 12:52, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:CORP.  Powers 14:13, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Perhaps not well known in Salzberg, Berlin, or U.S.A., this is significant store in Canada, more importantly in Ontario. Optimale suggests that they do not appear on Google, but is that really a good measure of a company's notability? (And may I just say that upon typing "trans canada store supplies" in Google, I got no less than 68 hits, one of which even came from the Canadian National Defense department, which outlines how the company supplied them $31 000 worth of equipment) Ask any restaurant, grocery store, school, or convenience store in Northern or Central Ontario and you will discover not only how notable, but also how vital this company is. Further, the comment about it sounding like an advertisement is completely unfounded. The article is written with clear, concise, and obvious objectiveness. There is no reason to delete it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.159.15.53 (talk • contribs)
 * Keep. I completely agree with the last post! iAN-L! 9:24, 13 July 2006 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.159.15.53 (talk • contribs)
 * Comment: Um, since that's your post as well, I would hope so. Please do not use sockpuppet signatures to "generate an appearance of consensus" in an AfD discussion. --Satori Son 14:26, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. This private company clearly does not meet any of the very specific criteria listed in Wikipedia:Notability (companies). Wikipedia is an encyclopedia of notable subjects, not a comprehensive directory of every significant business venture in the world. --Satori Son 14:26, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm not really sure how Anonymous up there got 68 Google hits. I got two, both of which were Wikipedia. --Icewolf34 14:28, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
