Multinational corporation

Corporation operating in multiple countries

Summary

A multinational corporation (MNC) is a corporate organization that owns and controls the production of goods or services in at least one country other than its home country.

[[WP:GOCE]] copyedit: layout (moved definitions and theory to top), cohesion, conciseness (particularly condensing the section Oil, which was by far the longest in the article and went way off topic), clarity and tone (encyclopedic tone, not a textbook)
