Title: Odd rich snippet.
Post by: gm66 on March 10, 2016, 03:00:17 PM
A prospective client does safety wear, searching for 'ppe suppliers' the no1 result on Google UK is safetysupplies.co.uk.

https://www.google.co.uk/search?site=&source=hp&q=ppe+suppliers&oq=ppe+suppliers&gs_l=hp.3..0l10.4317085.4318553.0.4318657.19.15.0.4.4.0.194.1572.4j9.13.0....0...1c.1.64.hp..2.12.945.0.CnRHKU9I6PA

The rich snippet is taken from their sidebar menu!

What's going on there, Google gone mad ?

Odd indeed. 
It breaks on line 3... and nowhere does supplier come in. (in the snippet)

Industry workwear is only mentioned once on the page...

<span class="home-head">Industry Workwear. Tradesman Workwear.</span>


clearly snippets are not as simple as they used to be.  I can offer nothing rational.

"I can offer nothing rational." No worries, at least you provided an excellent quote :)

Usual state of mind that.
