Default Multiple text search in a cell

I am attempting to search data in a cell that has multiple options of text
(different countries). The problem is, I might have El Salvador but also have
a company in El Salvador. So I need to be able to pull the data for both. I
can pull El Salvador, but, can't figure out how to look for the other also.
Here's the formula I'm using to pull the data:

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("ELSALVADOR",'[Master File.xls]All Data'!G2)),'[Master
File.xls]All Data'!A2,"")

Can I extend this formula in some way to also pull the company data.

Here's the scenrio I have:

Column A Column G
name ELSALVADOR
name Australia
name Company
name Thailand

I need to pull the information in Column A anytime ELSALVADOR or Company
shows up and ignore the rest.


Thanks for any help in advance.
