Discount store chain Puregold was among the most trusted brands in the country and the only retail brand to be included on the prestigious list, based on the recent report of Brand Finance Philippines 30 2024 report released on Monday.
Brand Finance Philippines measures a company’s value, stature, strength and growth, and it stacks them against local, regional, and even global competitors.
Yearly, the brand valuation consultancy group evaluates the strength and value of over 5,000 brands from around the world, across more than 40 sectors and industries, crafted by the London-based independent brand valuation consultancy agency Brand Finance.
Puregold retained its hold on the 9th spot, after gaining a 16 percent increase in brand value from 2023.
The retail brand’s ranking underscored its exceptional performance and continued dedication to delivering value and quality to customers.

Meanwhile, companies from the banking, telecommunications, fast-food and real estate sectors figured prominently in the said report.
In the Brand Finance Philippines 30 2024 report, Sy family’s banking arm BDO ranked as the most valuable brand, clocking in a 14 percent increase in brand value, outranking fast-food giant Jollibee and telecommunications company Globe Telecom.
The popular homegrown fast-food chain Jollibee’s value went up by 51 percent, taking the second spot, while the Ayala-led Globe Telecom’s brand value went down 4 percent, ending in the 3rd spot.
The Pangilinan Group’s PLDT, which topped the list in the 2022 and 2023 reports, fell three notches, sliding to the No. 4 spot after posting a 25 percent decrease in brand value.
Other brands that made it in the Top 10 are Bank of the Philippine Islands (5th), Metrobank (6th), Meralco (7th), Petron (8th), and Union Bank (10th).
