Can YOU name the top 50 global brands?

By web gangsta | Published: March 2, 2010

It’s hard to differentiate your brand in a small market.

Imagine how difficult it can be to establish your brand in today’s world-wide environment.

Now imagine how more complicated that has become with the Internet diluting everybody’s attention span to that of a walnut. Now you have an idea of how hard it can be to get a new brand noticed in the competitive world-wide field.

Especially when other companies have had decades-upon-decade head start on you.

Here is a list of the TOP 50 BEST GLOBAL PUBLICALLY-TRADED BRANDS FOR 2009, as ranked by their overall brand value in the marketplace.

The first ten are fairly easy to pinpoint by anybody who’s been paying attention to anything around them:

Coca-Cola
IBM
Microsoft
General Electric
Nokia
McDonald’s
Google
Toyota
Intel
DisneyAnd the rest are a bit more interesting where they fell:
Hewlett-Packard
Mercedes-Benz
Gillette
Cisco
BMW
Louis Vuitton
Marlboro
Honda
Samsung
Apple
H&M
American Express
Pepsi
Oracle
Nescafe
Nike
SAP
Ikea
Sony
Budweiser
UPS
HSBC
Canon
Kellogg’s
Dell
Citibank
JP Morgan
Goldman Sachs
Nintendo
Reuters
Gucci
Philips
Amazon
L’oreal
Accenture
eBay
Siemens
Heinz
Ford
Zara

More interesting than how many of these global brands could you name – how many of these brands do you touch or interact with on a daily basis as part of your everyday life?

By web gangsta | Published: February 16, 2010

It wasn’t officially a competition, but we do have a winner (according to the fine folks at MEN’S HEALTH magazine).
