Top 10 Socially Responsible brands

The Top 10 Brands Based On Consumer Perception

(May data - brands with the highest Social Responsibility Scores)

UNDERSTANDING THE SRS DATA

Consumer perspective on the top brands

The above data highlights the top 10 brands in May according to consumers from an assessment of over 200 brands across more than 7 categories.

Respondents are asked to provide their perspective on how socially and environmentally responsible they think brands are using a bipolar scale. They are only asked about brands they are familiar with and a 'don't know' option is provided to ensure opinions are considered and strongly held.     

The data is collected on a rolling monthly basis and more brands are being added all the time.  

DIVING DEEPER

Investigating the differences

It won't come as a surprise to learn that different demographic and user groups have different opinions about how socially and environmentally responsible brands are. 

You can investigate differences by product usage, age, gender, location and more using March/April data via our interactive data dashboard.

Personal values and lifestyle preferences are driving consumer behavior today more than ever. Upto now it's been hard for brands to easily assess the impact of this more holistic decision making, so we look forward to working with our Connected Partner Glow to introduce our clients to a new metric that does just that...It captures consumer perception of a brand’s ESG performance relative to competitors and can be used to help set ESG strategy or optimize current investments. It is an important metric for any business committed to doing better for people and the planet.

Consumers are increasingly inclined to consider social responsibility and sustainability values when choosing brands. This means brands both have to walk the talk, and communicate those values effectively in their marketing. Glow's Social Responsibility Score gives us insight into which brands are doing this well and enables us to track how well brands we work with are communicating their values. It's an invaluable data asset.

Glow Social Responsibility Score LP-Methodology

Consumers are taking greater care in choosing who they buy from

They look at more than the quality and price of the product or service you provide – they’re looking at your impact on the planet, how staff and suppliers are treated, whether your business supports its community and if it is a good corporate citizen.

According to recent research*, two out of three consumers actively take these concerns into account when looking to buy. But previously, businesses weren’t able to easily discover what people really think of their performance in this area.

We knew this data was vital, so we created the Social Responsibility Score (SRS) to make it easy for businesses to understand the consumer view of their social and environmental behaviour.
