These Are Gen Z's Top 20 Favorite Brands
From streaming platforms to gaming brands.

Gen Z — the generation born between the late ’90s and early 2000s — is predicted to overtake millennials as the largest generation in the US next year. In light of this, survey research technology company Morning Consult Brand Intelligence conducted a survey to see which brands are Gen Z’s top favorites, selecting the age group of 18-21. Google takes the throne as the top brand for this young generation, closely followed by Netflix in second place, and Google-owned YouTube in third. The company also found that Gen Z prefers certain categories, with tech, food brands, and entertainment among them. A few retail brands made it on the list too, such as Walmart, Target and Dollar Tree. Here is the full ranked list:
