Garner's fourth edition, page 714, states regarding the name McDonald’s
It is quite defensible to write McDonald’s dinner combos (the name
functioning as a kind of possessive)
On what grounds can a business name which is made with a possessive function as a (kind of) possessive?
Secondly, is the same true for a business name created with a plural noun, therefore ending in -s'? (I am not a native speaker, and unfortunately cannot come up with an example right now)
