Help Wanted

I like this map. I’m not really sure what it means or how to read it (yeah, I know, Pepsi owns Fritos and LVMH owns all the clothing labels I can’t afford, but beyond that…) If you can help me out, then help me out.

I generally get the "map" at a quick glance, but I don't get why this diagram is placed on a world map. It has no connection to the geography below, unless it just wants to show that these connections are worldwide.

I agree - the diagram has nothing to do with the geography below it.
I think that you are onto something with the worldwide connections.
Placing the diagram over a world map shows the broad scope of the diagram.

I'm geographically offended by the misleading placement of corporations over somewhat random locations but I'll find a way to get over it. Nice map anyway - I may have to steal it.
