apostrophe after the s denotes belonging to; apostrophe before the s denotes a letter missing as in Stanley is; no apostrophe denotes plural.

Apostrophe before the s denotes belonging to and/or a letter missing i.e. Stanley's brands - brands belonging to Stanley
Stanley's not here - Stanley is not here
Personally I would prefer something with Stanley's on it than Stanleys' on it - There's only one Accy Stanley so how can you have a plural Stanley. Perhaps you could give me an example of a punctuation correct sentence with Stanleys' included in it.
