Most Effective Marketers
Top 5: Unilever, The Coca-Cola Company, Nestlé, AB InBev, PepsiCo
Unilever leads the Most Effective Marketers category for the fourth year in a row, with work for brands including Axe, Dove, Knorr, Lifebuoy, Lux, Omo, Rexona and Surf Excel. The global packaged-goods company has held the top spot seven times over the past 10 years.
AB InBev entered the top 5 for the first time, with work for brands including Budweiser in North America and Bavaria Brewery's Águila and Corona in Latin America. Procter & Gamble and McDonald's dropped out of the top 5 to No. 7 and No. 6, respectively. PepsiCo returned to the top 5 after a drop in the rankings last year.
YUM!, British mobile technology leader Vodafone and Swedish furniture giant IKEA round out the top 10.
Most Effective Brands
Top 5: Coca-Cola, McDonald's, KFC, Vodafone, IKEA
Coca-Cola retained its title as the most effective brand globally in 2020. It has ranked in the top 5 every year since the Index launched in 2011, taking the top spot six times. Coca-Cola China's "Faces of the City" campaign was a standout, winning Gold, Silver and Bronze recognitions for its effective use of AR and packaging. McDonald's came in second place for the second year in a row, with work such as "Anticipating Hungry Moments" for McDonald's Hong Kong. The campaign was the first to use Google's real-time triggers in Hong Kong, aimed at targeting late-night World Cup viewers. KFC and Vodafone swapped third and fourth places, thanks to KFC's success in APAC, MENA and Europe, but otherwise the top 5 most effective brands are exactly the same as last year.
