Kellysearch is a global database of business-to-business products, services and company information. If you need to find a supplier for your business chances are you will find one on Kellysearch. That’s because we provide information on more than 2 million B2B companies from around the world. We take the time and effort to describe in detail the products and services that these companies supply. And best of all, our site is completely free to use and we don’t force you to register (so you don’t have to worry about filling in forms and remembering your password).

The Kellysearch site has evolved from the Kelly’s Business Directory book to become one of the leading B2B databases online, and is published by Reed Business Information (RBI), a division of the Reed Elsevier Group plc (NYSE: RUK and ENL) – a world-leading publisher, exhibition organiser and information provider operating in the science and medical, legal and business-to-business industry sectors.

Why should I use Kellysearch?

Kellysearch is different from the general search engines as it only lists manufacturers or suppliers of B2B products, not retail or consumer goods. For example a search for ‘Pumps’ will return results for ‘Water Pumps’ or ‘Vacuum Pumps’ amongst others; but not footwear or running shoes. The site allows targeted searching across the extensive list of headings to identify the specific product or service required. Alternatively a company name search allows users to quickly contact a new supplier or confirm details of known suppliers – without the need for registration or subscription.

How do I use Kellysearch?

The search box appears on each page of the site and allows users to search by product, company, location or a combination of these. Simply enter the keywords you wish to search for and click on ‘Find it’. The related results will then be returned on screen. Alternatively, the Advanced Search facility allows you to specify by product or company name.
