Staples #7404

Open DiogoBaptista98 opened 1 year ago

The Staples brand exists in several countries around the world, but here in OSM brands we just have the USA (Staples Inc) and Canada (a subsidiary of Staples Inc) options, it is important to differentiate the operator company and the brand, the brand has several operators around the world, so I suggest creating the Stapes brand for all countries in which it is present: Austria, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Norway, Portugal, United Kingdom (and the United States)
