agree Sarah Swift : Using *portfolio* implies that their various products and services are not just a chaotic collection, but that the products and services have been chosen to match each other and work well together.

neutral Robert Donahue (X) : "Products and services" is a specific answer at least. You provided more explanation in your response to me than you did to the asker. In principle, I get it but you aren't answering for me but for a non-native speaker.
