Our short video explains our brand framework, how we link brand recognition and perception with actual sales to gauge your ‘brand contribution’ and how we help you increase that contribution.
We strongly believe in the power of brand as a key to business success. That is why we develop all our brand elements to give a strong and consistent approach across all markets. But without tracking these elements, we cannot improve. By monitoring how our METRO/makro brands resonate and how our brand equity evolves in each local market, we are adapting, improving and galvanizing growth. We then use these rich local insights to refine our global strategy and amplify it locally - designing products, services and communications that are relevant to our target audience. By doing so, we provide additional value to our customers – independent businesses around the world while driving our sustainable growth. GfK has been a great partner for us. They invest in understanding our needs and objectives and provide us with a passionate, knowledgeable and expert team that works with us to create a highly successful brand tracker. We see our cooperation with GfK as an investment in our brand growth.
