Italy’s 40 Most Valuable Brands Power a $121 Billion Market 🇮🇹✨ “The future will always belong to those who know how to build it.” — Giovanni Agnelli

Italy’s brand landscape enters 2025 with remarkable resilience. According to the new Kantar BrandZ Most Valuable Italian Brands report, the country’s Top 40 brands collectively reach a value of $121.1 billion, slipping only 1% despite geopolitical uncertainty and cautious economic forecasts. More than half of the brands in the ranking increased their value, confirming the enduring strength of Italian identity, craftsmanship, and innovation.

🇮🇹 A Resilient Brand Nation

Italy’s brand landscape enters 2025 with remarkable resilience. According to the new Kantar BrandZ Most Valuable Italian Brands report, the country’s Top 40 brands collectively reach a value of $121.1 billion, slipping only 1% despite geopolitical uncertainty and cautious economic forecasts. More than half of the brands in the ranking increased their value, confirming the enduring strength of Italian identity, craftsmanship, and innovation. At the top, Gucci celebrates its seventh consecutive year as Italy’s most valuable brand, holding the No.1 position with $17.0bn, followed by Enel at No.2 with $15.4bn, and Ferrari at No.3 with $14.0bn, boosted by global visibility and the high‑profile arrival of Lewis Hamilton to the Scuderia.

🛍️ Sector Shifts and New Entrants

Across sectors, Italy’s brand ecosystem shows dynamic shifts. Six Financial Services brands collectively reach $13.4bn, with Intesa Sanpaolo, UniCredit, Banca Mediolanum, and Generali emerging as major risers thanks to improved market conditions. Banco BPM enters the ranking for the first time at No.38. Meanwhile, the Retail sector welcomes two newcomers: Conad at No.17 and Coop at No.18, both demonstrating how heritage retailers can modernize through competitive pricing, broad assortments, and reliable service. Esselunga also climbs to No.32, reinforcing the sector’s renewed momentum.

🌟 The Power of the Top 10

The Top 10 paints a vivid picture of Italy’s brand power. After Gucci, Enel, and Ferrari, Kinder holds No.4 with $9.0bn, followed by Prada at No.5 and Fendi at No.6, proving that Italian luxury remains a global force even amid softened demand in the US, Korea, Japan, and China. Generali at No.7, TIM at No.8, Nutella at No.9, and Intesa Sanpaolo at No.10 complete the upper tier. Each brand reflects a different facet of Italian excellence: design, energy, mobility, food culture, financial stability, and technological infrastructure. Their combined performance underscores how strategic marketing investment and long‑term brand building can counteract external pressures.

🔧 Innovation Across Industries

Sector‑specific stories reveal how Italian brands are adapting. Utilities brands such as A2A, Enel, Hera, and Iren all grow between 2% and 17%, benefiting from market liberalisation, rising energy consumption, and strong communication around sustainability. Fastweb strengthens its position by entering the renewable energy market with Fastweb Energia and expanding its telecom footprint through its merger with Vodafone and the rollout of 5G and fibre. In food, Nutella continues to innovate with biscuits, muffins, croissants, and plant‑based offerings, proving that even a 1964 icon can find new relevance. Luxury brands like Prada rise through cultural programming, global expansion, and sustainability initiatives such as Re‑Nylon, which transforms ocean plastics into new collections.

🚀 Building the Future Through Brand Power

As Italy’s Top 40 navigate an unpredictable global environment, the message is clear: brand investment remains the engine of long‑term growth. Those that stay present at the point of purchase, expand into new spaces, and maintain meaningful differentiation are best positioned to thrive. The full Kantar BrandZ Most Valuable Italian Brands 2025 report offers deeper insights into these dynamics, alongside tools like Kantar’s AI‑powered LIFT ROI model, which helps brands understand the real impact of their marketing. In a year defined by uncertainty, Italy’s leading brands show that clarity of purpose, cultural relevance, and strategic evolution continue to build value — just as Agnelli suggested, the future belongs to those who shape it.
