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 />
