Decathlon, andros, panzani: what is france's favourite brand?

FRENCH FOOD BRANDS DOMINATE LIST ALTHOUGH GLOBAL GIANTS ARE PRESENT A list of France’s favourite brands has been released, with a popular dairy company losing the top spot. Although 24 of

the top 30 brands were already in the rankings last year, La Laitière – a subsidiary of Nestlé which produces yoghurts and other dairy-based desserts – dropped to third on the list. The top

spot this year went to Bonne Maman, another dessert company which makes cakes, biscuits, jam, and a host of other sweet treats. Only one product, Tefal, remained in the same place (15th) on

the list, which is released annually by _MARQUE PRÉFÉRÉE DES FRANÇAIS_. MANY FRENCH BRANDS RANKED HIGH Korean electronics company Samsung took second spot, climbing 11 places compared to the

previous year, and being the only non-food or drink product in the top 10. Amazon and Google were also listed in the top 30, joining Samsung as representatives of global companies. However,

not everyone is happy with the services these companies provide in France. READ MORE: ‘AMAZON FRANCE HAVE LOST MY CUSTOM AND MANY OF MY DELIVERIES’ A significant proportion of the

best-ranking brands are French, or sell mainly on the French market, including Bonne Maman. Others include St Michel an Lu (both biscuit manufacturers) Paysan Breton and Lustucru. Decathlon,

which came 23rd on the list, may be a global brand, but is French in origin, and was created in Lille in 1976. You can see the full list below, including where the products were ranked last
