Comment: "Thank you. It appears to me that a second tier supplier or a tier 2 supplier is the same as a subcontractor. I presume the original Chinese term is a literal translation of second tier supplier or tier 2 supplier, so I have decided to do a reverse translation into "second tier supplier." My thanks to all who have been of great help to me."

subsupplier
既然中文已经给出“二级供应商”，为什么不用“subsupplier?”
