Ask HN: Non tech companies that are transparent?

2 points by bitesociety ↗ HN
In tech we have several active companies (eg Buffer) that are quite transparent when it comes to revenues, costs, underlying processes etc

Does that exist in other industries, eg food etc? Or is it a peculiarity to software / tech

Many companies that are open to investment, such as most publically traded companies, produce quarterly reports for shareholders.

I think the reason you see this in SaaS is that it’s a marketing tactic. There’s an overlap between their customers and software developers or online marketers.
