Template:Business listing

{{Business listing}} emits one row of a business's or organization's == Directory listings == table. One row = one printed year of a city directory (e.g. Henderson's), so each new year is one more row and nothing is loose prose. Rows are kept in year order; the table is sortable. The person version is {{Directory listing}}.
