The Best Global Brands of 2009

Posted on 10. Feb, 2010 by in Apple, Business, Microsoft

These are the most expensive brands of the year for 2009. No big surprises.. I guess that companies from internet and technology industry will climb up on the ranking and get better and better positions. The first five companies are at the top of the list for many years! Who doesn’t drink Coca-Cola? McDonald’s and Google go higher and higher every year while Toyota and Intel become less popular with a weaker brand name. United States is the leading country in the entire list. What a surprise! :)

These are the first 10 best brands of 2009:
