WORLDWIDE REPUTABLE COMPANIES 2020

As per the Global RepTrak 2020 survey, the most reputable companies of 2020 are:

1. 🇩🇰 : Lego
2. 🇺🇸 : The Walt Disney Company
3. 🇨🇭 : Rolex
4. 🇮🇹 : Ferrari
5. 🇺🇸 : Microsoft
6. 🇺🇸 : Levi Strauss & Co
7. 🇺🇸 : Netflix
8. 🇩🇪 : Adidas
9. 🇩🇪 : Bosch
10. 🇺🇸 : Intel

How was this determined?
The 2020 Global RepTrak was conducted between December 2019 and January 2020 and considered 80,540 individual responses from across the world’s 15 largest economies: Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, South Korea, Spain, the U.K., and the U.S.

There were a total of 153 companies measured, who all have a global footprint and annual revenue of at least $2 billion.

It should be the goal, the dream and the aspiration of every company to feature in this list.

WORLD MANUFACTURING OUTPUT

There is a lot of talk around how the world will change, economies would behave differently and how manufacturing output would shift across nations due to various political and economic reasons. 

Now what will happen in the coming months/years is difficult to predict, but what we can surely see is how the world's manufacturing output set-up is today. 

1. 52% of the world's output is concentrated in Asia, coming from 8 countries led by #China at 4t (28% of the world total) followed by #Japan at 1t (7% of the world total).

2. Although, North America accounts for only 18% of the world's output, #USA occupies 16.65% of the world total, coming second after China. 

3. Europe accounts for 22% with #Germany being equal to the next three nations in terms of output.

4. #India occupies the sixth rank and if it wants to grow into a super power, it will have to continue increasing its share further.

COFFEE COLA

In line with their strategy to diversify and keeping innovating #Pepsi has just announced the launch of their Pepsi Cafe range. 

This special combination of #cola with #coffee will be a limited edition that would be launched in the US market in April 2020 and would be available in two flavors - original and vanilla.

What is interesting is that Coca Cola has a similar product called Coke Plus Coffee, which is available in a few markets but still not available in USA. 

Will we see Coca Cola moving fast and bringing their product in the US markets before the debut of Pepsi Cafe? It's a wait and watch game. 

However, this also will eat into the share of the cold coffee market, so we will see lot of action from the coffee players as well to protect their share.

TAKE AN OATH

Healthy and conscious eating is rising with every passing year, every new research and every new study. 

Companies - big and small are taking lot of efforts to not only innovate with, but also educate about healthy eating and wholesome ingredients.

Here is another example from a new brand Oath that has launched a range of functional oat milk-based beverages in USA. 

These Oath Organic Milk products come with plant protein in flavours that have strong health associations and good taste - matcha chai, turmeric, Indian rose.

These #beverages also include nutritious ingredients like almonds, pumpkin seeds, apple fibre, spices like saffron, ginger, and cardamom to offer various health benefits. All the products are #organic, riding on all the key trends that matter to the consumers in that market.

I believe that the milk segment will continue to see many such innovations and launches as awareness and income rises in more and more economies.
