TOP 50 MOST VALUABLE LATIN AMERICAN BRANDS 2015<br />

HAS THE SLOWING<br />

PERUVIAN<br />

ECONOMY IMPACTED<br />

BRAND VALUE?<br />

The Peruvian economy saw important growth in recent<br />

years, generating changes in consumers: they are now more<br />

informed, more demanding, more connected, accessing more<br />

and more modern purchasing channels, and seeking new<br />

forms of entertainment.<br />

However, in the past two years economic growth<br />

has not been as expected, which poses a question<br />

for brands: How can they keep generating value in<br />

an economic context less favorable than that of the<br />

country’s recent “golden age”?<br />

A lot of brands, the most valuable ones, have the<br />

answer to this question. These are the brands that<br />

achieved a value increase against 2014 despite the<br />

situation described.<br />

So, what is it that these brands did in order to grow?<br />

DIGITIZATION<br />

+20%<br />

In the face of the huge change in<br />

consumer behaviors, some brands have<br />

understood the way to be present in the<br />

new digital world.<br />

Although there is still a long way to<br />

go, there are brands – like BCP and<br />

Interbank – daring to be the first to<br />

increase their digital campaigns and<br />

create more salience, while favoring the<br />

use of the internet and mobile devices<br />

to make transactions.<br />

DIFFERENTIATION<br />

83.2 Million<br />

With highly relevant insights and<br />

consistent communication, Pilsen Callao<br />

has managed to be a meaningful but,<br />

above all, different brand by generating<br />

a great brand experience, for instance,<br />

by celebrating Friend’s Day, or creating<br />

“the beer bouquet”.<br />

The presence of the retail sector in the<br />

most valuable brands ranking of last<br />

year shows that the modern channel<br />

is becoming stronger in the country.<br />

A good example of this is Real Plaza, the<br />

shopping mall chain that has expanded<br />

all over the country, generating clear<br />

differentiation in terms of leadership. Real<br />

Plaza has managed to break paradigms by<br />

bringing shopping malls close to different<br />

regions and socio-economic levels,<br />

as well as understanding consumers’<br />

changing purchasing habits. It is focused<br />

on providing a great brand experience<br />

through meaningfulness – for instance,<br />

there are family entertainment areas<br />

inside its malls.<br />

However, there is still a long way to go in<br />

terms of innovation. Although there are<br />

brands with successful launches, there is<br />

another question to be answered: Is the<br />

work on innovation in Peru sufficient? Are<br />

we taking the calculated risks necessary<br />

to be more innovative?<br />

Innovation not only relates to products,<br />

but also to brands, communication,<br />

contact points... We must all open our<br />

minds to innovation.<br />
