Conditions of the problem:
There is a store where goods are brought from 3 different cities. Each city has its own manufacturer table. The fields in the tables of manufacturers are different (due to some reasons, this is not the topic now), it is impossible to combine all tables of manufacturers into one table.
The store has a table of goods.
Question: How can I change/add the table/database structure in order to establish a connection between a product in a store and a specific manufacturer? It is necessary to uniquely identify the production by the id of the product from the store.

As an option, two fields: the name of the table and id in this table, but
Can.
Ultimately, the decision was made to merge the tables into one, as the first answer states.
To the extreme, if I don’t like null fields, then unique fields for each city can be placed in an additional table of detailed information.
