Please excuse all the cutting, but this is a personal irritant that I
find very hard to ignore. Vanity doesn't apply to businesses.
Businesses are either important, influential, recognizable or
otherwise worthy of writing an article about them, or they aren't.
In which case they will violate [[WP:NOR]] and [[WP:NOT]] a business
directory.
Sure, while you're making that blanket statement without considering
each case individually, try nominating [[Wal-Mart]] to AfD and see
what happens. (No, don't.) Businesses are, generally speaking,
excellent subjects for articles because of the multiple sources of
verifiable NPOV information about them. I'd find a better example of
one that started out even smaller, as a meager little stub, but the
server isn't responding right now.
