The 20 Most Valuable Brand Portfolios in 2026
Which companies own the most valuable collections of consumer brands? From Apple to LVMH to P&G, these are the 20 most valuable brand portfolios ranked by combined brand value.
Measuring Brand Empires
Individual brand values get plenty of attention. Apple, Google, and Amazon regularly top the "most valuable brand" lists. But what about the total value of a company's entire brand portfolio? Which corporations own the most valuable collections of consumer-facing brands?
This ranking looks beyond individual brand valuations to assess which companies have built the most valuable total portfolios. We combine data from Brand Finance, Interbrand, and Kantar BrandZ methodologies with revenue data and market analysis to rank the 20 most valuable brand portfolios in 2026.

Key Takeaways
Technology companies dominate. The top 5 most valuable brand portfolios are all technology companies. Tech brands benefit from network effects, ecosystem lock-in, and massive scale that consumer goods brands cannot match.
Consumer goods are valuable but different. P&G, Unilever, and Nestle own hundreds of brands each, but no individual brand reaches the valuation of Apple or Google. The value is in the breadth and consistency of the portfolio.
Luxury punches above its weight. LVMH and Hermes rank among the top 20 despite having much smaller revenue bases than tech or CPG companies. Luxury brands command extraordinary valuations relative to their sales.
Portfolio strategy matters. Companies that maintain focused, well-managed portfolios (Apple, LVMH) tend to generate higher total brand value than companies with sprawling, unfocused portfolios.
