We are pleased to share that Levi Strauss & Co. has been included, for the sixth time in the past seven years, in Fortune’s annual list of the World’s Most Admired Companies — ranking fourth among the top five apparel companies globally.
Fortune’s list was compiled by Fortune and Korn Ferry based on a survey of corporate reputation. First, candidates for the list (based on revenue) were scaled down from 1,500 to 685 in 29 countries. The top-rated companies were picked from that pool of 685 companies. To determine the best-regarded companies in each industry, Korn Ferry asked executives, directors and analysts who work at the companies to rate enterprises in their own industry on nine criteria sections, including:
- Innovation
- People Management
- Use of Corporate Assets
- Social Responsibility
- Quality of Management
- Financial Soundness
- Long-term Investment Value
- Quality of Products/Services
- Global Competitiveness
We are honored to rank among the world’s most admired companies, and we look forward to continuing to position our company as a DTC-first, head-to-toe denim lifestyle retailer.
