Some of the one's I mentioned are comparable - for example there are 2,500 Spar stores across the UK, some of them are a match for the Netto stores in size.

Also with some stores it isn't always obvious who they are affiliated with - some quite large 'local' supermarkets retain their own branding, but are still members of a larger purchasing organisation.
