Can my employer force vendors not in direct competition with them not to hire me?

I work at a mid-sized retailer's corporate office. Upon being hired I was asked to sign a non-compete agreement that barred me from being employed at direct retail competitors. My employer is now forcing vendors that it purchases from to sign additional contracts that stipulate they will not hire their "points of contact" at my employer, of which I have been deemed even though I don't regularly communicate with that vendor. This severely limits my future career opportunities and exceed the non-compete agreement I myself signed--is this legal?
