Asda-Sainsbury may be huge, but Tesco's global land holdings, if it were a country, with its 6,800+ stores, car parks, distribution centres, head office etc etc, would probably be larger than the Vatican City, Monaco, Nauru, Tuvalu and San
Marino (= 61 sq km). Approaching the size of Leichtenstein, 160 sq km).
