I would probably do it more like this:
<input type="checkbox" name="CURRENT-vendor" id="companyA" value="companyA" />
<label for="companyA">Company A</label>
<input type="checkbox" name="CURRENT-vendor" id="companyB" value="companyB" />
<label for="companyB">Company B</label>

You are asking a single question:
"Who are you a current vendor for?"
The answer may contain multiple values. I think this is probably easier to maintain than asking multiple questions:
"Are you a current vendor for CompanyA?"
"Are you a current vendor for CompanyB?"

I've tried that but when I submit it I only see the question once and it fills in the last given answer
CURRENT-vendor: companyB
this shows up if both are selected. Is it because of the name attribute being the same? I'm using a basic php mail function

You need to give the input a name ending in []. As in:
<input type="checkbox" name="CURRENT-vendor[]" id="companyA" value="companyA" />
<label for="companyA">Company A</label>
<input type="checkbox" name="CURRENT-vendor[]" id="companyB" value="companyB" />
<label for="companyB">Company B</label>
Then you will be able to treat the result as an array in PHP. Like so:
<?php
print_r($_POST['CURRENT-vendor']);
?>
