A website where a business recommends other businesses

Would a website where businesses recommend other businesses work? For example a company wants to buy furniture for its office or want to hire a logo designer or want to hire an accounting firm... i guess it would be a great help if the company can find out what other similar companies are using.

The main things people use here are:

G2 & Capterra for software

Clutch & GoodFirms for service providers and vendors

here i am referring to smaller businesses, so that they can checkout for localised businesses around them or their competitors

What kinds of businesses?

Accounting firms and design firms are mostly on Yelp, Google Reviews, or Clutch.

Office furniture firms are generally on Google Reviews and sometimes Yelp.

yeah they are but: for example - you own a bakery , you can log on to the site and check out what other bakery owners have bought and from where. for example someone bought a unique display rack or someone bought a cheaper billing paper roll.
