Starbucks doesn't even come close. Western Union is present everywhere except Iran and N. Korea. Coca Cola is present everywhere except Cuba and North Korea

The Company is not present there, but there are restaurants (diplomatic clubs etc.) that sell Coke products in Pyongyang. Smuggled from China or whatever.

Walmart isn't present in many countries (just 26). Their junk doesn't sells well where people rather pay little more for quality. They could not compete with Aldi and other discounters in Germany.

They are not present in Australia, Russia, Europe (except UK - its called Asda there).
Their stores are mainly located in Americas, India and China.

Aldi has worse food quality than Walmart. That place is vile. I went once and will never set foot in one again.

My sister works for them. They deal with commodities, grain, salt, list goes on. They developed Stevia sweetener. They are doing a lot of consolidating. Moving jobs out of the US.

Walmart brands itself as "ASDA" where I live, and KFC still isn't in a number of countries, such as Finland. Which is why I could never live in Finland

They don't make a "product" but large courier companies serve almost every country...

UPS and Fedex, for example, have service to almost every country.
Being they are US companies, I'm guessing they don't serve, Cuba, Iran, and North Korea.
