Interviews were conducted all over the country, from metropolitan areas to deep rural areas, Ipsos said.<\/p>\n<p>Out of the top 10 brands\u00a0&#8211; four are retail names.<\/p>\n<p>This is likely as a result of retail outlets becoming a one-stop household management destination, by offering banking services, payments on utility bills and licences, as well as becoming distribution points for social grants and allowing people to send money to each other quickly and effectively, Ipsos said.<\/p>\n<p>It added that South Africa is also unique in the brands that have come out tops when comparing it to the top-10 list in other markets, which has been dominated by digital and tech brands.<\/p>\n<p>The Top 10 Brands Most Influential Brands in South Africa are as follows:<\/p>\n<hr
