It depends on what you mean by less known/powerful

A lot of companies that the general public doesn't tend to hear about are either outside of CPG/outside of your geography/outside of industries you hear about in the news or just private companies or holding companies. Some have really high revenues or # of employees.

A couple of companies I was surprised by revenues:

- Cargill/Koch both have $100B+ revenues

- Exor (Italy/Netherlands) $143B+
