WHITEDENT SCOOPS THE TITLE OF TANZANIA’S LEADING SUPERBRAND - FINANCIAL-24

Dar es Salaam. Sunday, May 21 2017. Household and personal hygiene brands, Whitedent and Foma Gold have been voted as Tanzania’s leading Superbrands following a comprehensive survey conducted by marketing experts and over 1,000 Tanzanian consumers based in Dar es Salaam, Arusha and Mwanza.

The process was managed by a London based company, The Centre for Brand Analysis.

Illustrating the increased consistency of the leading brands in the region, 10 brands retained the top 20 positions from the previous year. New entries into the ranking include: Foma Gold, Chai Bora, Mwananchi and University of Dar es Salaam.

Meanwhile, CRDB Bank and Toyota have both entered the top 20, with the former moving up one place to 11th and the latter up a more significant four places to 16th. The general trend has seen an increase of brands in the top 20 drawn from; Finance, Household, Automotive and Food & Beverage categories.

Having moved up from the bottom of the list, Tanzanian’s strongest brands Whitedent and Forma Gold have shown ongoing brand equity growth in the region.

Stephen Cheliotis, CEO of The Centre for Brand Analysis said, “we continue to see reduced volatility in the Tanzanian market, with an increasing number of new brands entering the top 20 of the Tanzanian brand elite. These top brands are once again led by the impressive Household and Personal Hygiene brand Whitedent while Foma Gold comes second.”

He added: “there was however a big dip in the performance of some brands. The top 20 overall is a balanced blend of global brands such as Toyota and Pepsi as well as local brands such as Kilimanjaro drinking water and Chai Bora. As is evident, it is a mix set of results for these brands, with a considerable amount of volatility highlighting different winners over the period.”

The following brands made the top 20 list of Tanzanian Consumer Superbrands 2017 (in chronological order): Whitedent, Foma Gold, Kilimanjaro drinking water, Panadol, ITV, University of Dar es Salaam, Mlimani City, Chai Bora, NMB, Vodacom, CRDB, Konyagi, Clouds FM, Mwananchi, Azam Uhai, Toyota, M-Pesa, Hedex, Pepsi and Nakumatt.

Consumer Superbrands Selection Process – Summary
The Tanzanian Consumer Superbrands are chosen by a combination of local Marketing Experts, appointed to the independent Superbrands Council, and just over 1,000 Tanzanian consumers, drawn from the urban areas of Dar es Salaam, Arusha and Mwanza. Brands do not apply or pay to be considered. The public vote is the culmination of an independent selection process administered by The Centre for Brand Analysis (TCBA).

Consumer Superbrands Selection Process – Detail

The Consumer Superbrands survey is independently administered by The Centre for Brand Analysis (TCBA). Brands do not apply or pay to be considered; rather, the selection process is conducted as follows:

• TCBA researchers compile lists of Tanzania’s leading business-to-consumer brands, drawing on a wide range of sources.

• From the thousands of brands initially reviewed, a final shortlist is created. For 2017, just fewer than 1,000 brands were shortlisted. This list is voted on by the independent and voluntary Superbrands Council. Bearing in mind the definition and qualities of a Consumer Superbrand, the council members individually award each brand a rating from 1–10. Council members are not allowed to score brands with which they have a direct association or are in competition to, nor do they score brands they are unfamiliar with.

• The top 60% of brands based on the councils’ collective score go through to the next round of voting, whereby the consumers of those brands, provide their opinions.

• An almost even split of men and women were asked, with representation ensured across all age groups and social-economic classes and education attainment levels.

• The views of the Superbrands Council and the Tanzania consumers are combined on an equal weighting to create a final ranking. The leading brands are deemed to be Superbrands.

Consumer Superbrands Definition

When voting on the brands, both the expert council and consumers consider the following definition of a Superbrand: “A Superbrand has established the finest reputation in its field. It offers customers significant emotional and/or tangible advantages over other brands, which (consciously or sub- consciously) customers want and recognise.”

In addition, both audiences are asked to judge brands against the following three factors:

• Quality. Does the brand represent quality products and services?

• Reliability. Can the brand be trusted to deliver consistently against its promises and maintain product and service standards at all customer touch points?

• Distinction. Is the brand not only well known in its sector but suitably differentiated from its competitors? Does it have a personality and values that make it unique within
