Who supplies this brand — reverse-extracted from each supplier's own filing (top-customer / related-party disclosure). The % is the supplier's revenue share from this brand (supplier-side, not procurement spend), unless a note says otherwise. Each edge keeps its period, source tier, and audit link; named relationships without a disclosed % are shown as such.
