Apple Inc. A tracked procurement-relevant organisation, company, supplier, country, region, port, commodity, regulator, route or similar subject.

US technology company. Accepted collision risk: 'apple' the fruit could appear in an agricultural/commodity context - judged acceptable given Apple's frequency and centrality to chip-shortage/ supply-chain coverage, the same balance already struck for 'Amazon' (river/rainforest) in Stage 6.6.
