We have more than one Tesco, but they are still called Tesco and NOT Tescos! If you are calling them Tescos then it should be Tesco's

I had to go out once, when I was working for Dell computers, because a customer could not, so they said, get onto the internet, and I was sent out with a number of parts, all of which I didn't need, because they were trying for example to get onto the Tesco site and were putting Tescos. Many people make the mistake of calling the firm Tescos instead of Tesco! The only one I know that has done that properly of course is Sainsbury's!

I believe that is an incorrect use of apostrophe's ;)

And I believe you are wrong, if it is then Sainsbury's is wrong!

Whether Sainsbury's is wrong or not, it is what he/they decided to call the company, so it is their name, whether grammatically correct or not.

I would think it to be right though, as a shortened form of "J Sainsbury's Supermarket" as in "The supermarket of or belonging to J Sainsbury"
