Recently, Chnbrand, an authoritative Chinese brand rating agency, released its 2020 China Brand Power Index (C-BPI) brand rankings and analysis report. Among the 220 category leaders covered by the survey data, Chinese brands accounted for 74.5%, up 4.2% from last year. Among the first brands in the FMCG industry, the proportion of Chinese brands also saw a slight increase compared to last year, reaching 62.4%. From the perspective of the stability of the 2020 C-BPI list, some brands have long held leadership positions through unremitting efforts in brand building, such as Snow Beer, which has been the category champion for more than five consecutive years. Of course, there are also peak brands that have continued to lead and consistently topped their categories since the C-BPI list was first released ten years ago, including Haitian (soy sauce), Bluemoon (hand wash/liquid detergent), Master Kong (instant noodles), Mengniu (yogurt), Nestlé (instant coffee), Johnson & Johnson (baby/children's bath/lotion products), and Arawana (cooking oil) among other FMCG brands. This is mainly due to sustained investment and deep cultivation in brand management and brand building, which has earned long-term market recognition. At the same time, we look forward to these brands continuing to maintain vitality and become the mainstay of the next decade. **-01-**Food Sector From the table information, it is not difficult to see that in the fields of chewing gum, chocolate, puffed food, and biscuits/wafers, foreign brands still hold an absolute leading position. The instant noodle market has a stable brand landscape, with Master Kong ranking first for 10 consecutive years and far ahead of competitors. In the nuts/dried fruits sector, the three snack giants Three Squirrels, Bestore, and Be & Cheery occupy the top three positions, with Three Squirrels ranking first with a significant advantage over the second and third. In the cooking oil sector, Arawana has been the industry leader for ten consecutive years. In the soy sauce and vinegar sectors, Haitian tops the list. In the infant and toddler sector, Mead Johnson (infant formula) defeated Dumex to win the industry's first place, while Dumex, which was at the top last year, fell out of the top three. It is also worth noting that the rising star Feihe quickly climbed into the top three, with Yili following closely behind. **-02-**Beverage Sector In the five areas of 100% pure fruit juice, fruit juice/fruit-flavored drinks/vegetable juice, tea drinks, instant coffee, and yogurt, the competitive landscape is stable, with Huiyuan, Minute Maid, Master Kong, Nestlé, and Mengniu respectively ranking first for 10 consecutive years, showing strong performance. In the bottled water market, since 2011, when Nongfu Spring's bottled water market share first surpassed Master Kong to become the industry leader, it has gradually solidified its position as the industry leader, with its brand status becoming increasingly stable. In the liquid milk market, Yili ranked first with a score of 595.2, followed by Mengniu with 523.1. This is also the fourth consecutive year that Yili has led the industry. In other segments, Mizone, Wong Lo Kat, and Youyi C respectively ranked first in their industries, with steady brand power growth. **-03-**Future Trends and Responses According to the report, Liu Na, Executive President of Chnbrand, stated that a key keyword projected by the 2020 C-BPI research results is "change." By observing changes in brand power indicators, we can further explore the underlying logic of brand building, better predict future market trends, break through myths, and respond to changes. Trend 1: The era of the media plain has arrived, and the focus of enterprises needs to shift from resources and traffic back to the essence of the brand. In the digital media era, the explosive growth of communication channels is gradually entering a closing period, followed by a new development cycle of "media equality." As a public resource, media is presented to enterprises in a more open way. Brands can reach consumers through various fragmented channels. Seizing media resources is no longer a unique means for brands to win competition. Winning by quantity will inevitably lead to more waste in communication costs and ineffective traffic. Response: For brands, truly effective "traffic" is that which flows into "people's hearts," and intimate brand relationships begin here. Trend 2: Brand building has entered a new stage that places more emphasis on "difference and meaning" than ever before. The rise of individuals in the Internet age and the iterative upgrading of Generation Z are driving brand growth. For consumers, brands are no longer just simple products and services, but are incorporated into consumers' life scope and self-system as concepts, identities, and resources, working together with consumers to build an ideal life. Therefore, brand difference and meaning become more important, representing deeper needs and motivations related to self-construction and self-expansion between brands and consumers. Response: Enterprises need to penetrate the entire journey of consumer lifecycle and brand interaction to build relationships. Trend 3: In the era of brand relationships, consumer expectations of brands will be built on the cornerstone of "empathy." Industry development is constantly changing, and brand building ideas also need to be continuously validated and corrected in a rapidly changing environment. In this era of technological iteration, demand upgrading, and the rise of new consumption forces, there is no safe zone for brands. Response: Enterprises need to always pay attention to the subtle changes between brands and consumers to find opportunities amidst change.
