What Brand Should We Know More About?

    If you played in our Trivia Tower event, you'll know we are highlighting brands from all around the globe through picture close-ups.

    That got us to thinking:

    Is there a brand you love that more people should be aware of? What makes it so special? Why should we check it out?

    Post your thoughts and you'll earn an extra three make-or-break points on your Trivia Tower score! (And you know those points always determine the winner).

    Now is your turn to highlight a brand we should be more aware of. I can't wait to see your answers! 

    And don't forget to play in our Global Brand Close-Ups Trivia Tower event if you haven't already. It's a fun, easy way to (maybe) win an item of your choice from the Prize Wall!

    Good luck,

    Jason

    Hi Jason,

    I would say Nestle, because of the logo that has the mother bird feeding her babies in the nest. :)

    My new favorite brand of candy is Amos, who make Peelerz candy.  They are these really weird gummy candies.

    How have I missed this? I don't think I've ever heard of a candy like this. I'll have to try this if I see it!

    I know that maybe half the world knows this brand, but it's from my country and it simply excites me to find it in other countries because I've been to the coffee fields and the image reflects the love and dedication of many people from my country. Juan Valdez!!

    Hobibear barefoot shoes!! Those who know me know I'm AuDHD (ASD 1 and ADHD [combination flavor]), and one of my "things" is that I hate shoes and socks. Can't stand them! I feel like my body is off balance in shoes and don't get me started on the seams in socks... I am hyperaware they are there, making my skin feel like melting jello... but I digress... Hobibear barefoot shoes are like walking around barefoot, but it is NT acceptable!! 

    I have 5 different pairs in five different colors (and the new fun summer colors just came out, so I must acquire them, naturally), but they are truly the best shoes ever. I stumbled on them during my TikTok doomscrolling and dopamine chasing adventures one night and have been hooked ever since. Trust me, you'll love them!

    When I saw their catalog, it reminded me of the pair of Kizik shoes that I have. Slip on shoes were a cool idea but I'm definitely intrigued with the idea of barefoot shoes.

    Bonne Maman - wonderful jam with an inspiring backstory of helping Jews during WWII Holocaust.

    There are some - like USPA & Wrangler (purely because of the fit-n-finish. And then New-Balance, NIke Jordans etc.
    I order my leather journals from UrbanCraft (a shop in Etsy) which I love !! 
    One that makes me proud is 'Tata.' (It owns: TCS, Taj Hotels, Titan & many others.)

    If anyone has ever shopped for device chargers you've probably seen Anker. My kids have yet to break any of their products and believe me, they've tried.

    I can back you up on that claim. I still have the Anker contact charger on my desk that my wife gave to me as a hand-me-down. I used it to charge my phone and my wireless ear buds.

    Thanks - I have one of those kids too (and a spouse), so I'm heading to their website directly!

    Hi Jason,

    I would say Toblerone. The logo is the Matterhorn mountain but in the negative space if you look closely there is an outline of a bear which is a subtle nod to where Toblerone was founded in Switzerland.

    Any logo that has more than one meaning grabs my attention.

    i.e FedEx with the "hidden" arrow betwen the 'E' and the 'X' or even Cisco, their logo feels "techy" but also looks like the Golden Gate Bridge, as the company is founded in San Francisco.

    I knew about the arrow in the FedEx logo but never saw the Golden Gate Bridge in the Cisco logo. That's so clever!

    I love good coffee and agree with Anker! My daughter has been asking about Peelerz so that'll be on the Amazon list! 

    I hate shoelaces and have replaced them all with Lock Laces. They're great and keep your shoes tight without having to tie them. They're easy for kids to use, too. For snacks, we like Stroopwafels.

    Hi all

    I find Iberdrola's logo very interesting. It expresses in a simple and visual way the company's commitment to generating electricity with clean energy.
