French term

"référence"

French to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
Sachez aussi que grâce au Terraplas que vous avez loué à YYY pour le concert de XXX à St Etienne et par conséquent de la référence qu'ils ont eue, YYY nous a pris le marché du concert ZZZ...

I wonder what "référence" would mean in this context? Catalogue number, reference, contact with the end client. It's fairly urgent so replies greatly appreciated.

il s'agit de plaques que l'on pose par terre, sur des stades ou des scènes pour des concerts, par exemple
