MANILA, Philippines – London-based brand valuation consultancy agency Brand Finance recently released its latest Brand Finance Philippines 2024 report, with companies from the banking, telecommunications, and retail sectors emerging as top contenders.
The company’s value, stature, strength, and overall growth are evaluated in this report, along with how that specific business compares to its national, international, and local rivals. Over 5,000 global brands in more than 40 sectors and industries are evaluated annually.
The most valuable brand was BDO Unibank, with a 14% increase in brand value. It surpassed the massive fast-food chain Jollibee and Globe Telecom, which bagged the second and third spots, respectively.
Banks dominated the list. Joining BDO in the top 10 are Bank of the Philippine Islands (5th), Metrobank (6th), and UnionBank (10th).
After bagging the top spot for two consecutive years, PLDT went down to the fourth spot in 2024 after posting a 25% decrease in brand value.
Puregold, the only retailer in the list, retained its hold on the 9th spot after gaining a 16% increase in brand value from 2023.
