Amazon, Publix, Wegmans rank high in reputation

by Pamela Riemenschneider, Feb 22, 2017

This morning, I received an email from Amazon.com offering $8.62 off a $50 purchase, today only.

What is this all about?

Amazon was crowing about their recent No. 1 ranking on The Harris Poll 2017 Reputation Quotient. What a funny way to celebrate ranking on a list, but hey, I’m sure a lot of people enjoyed the discount. The poll surveys more than 23,000 people on six corporate reputation dimensions:

  • Social responsibility
  • Emotional appeal
  • Products
  • Services
  • Vision
  • Leadership
  • Financial performance
  • Workplace environment

The Harris Poll publishes the Top 100 Most Visible, along with their rankings.  A score of 80 and above is considered Excellent, 75-79 is Very Good, 70-74 is Good, 65-69 is Fair, 55-64 is Poor, 50-54 is Very Poor and Below 50 is Critical.

Here are the grocery retailers in the Top 100 Most Visible, with their scores:

  1. Amazon.com                     86.27
  2. Wegmans                           85.41
  3. Publix                                  82.78

14. Costco                                 81.14

21. Kroger                                  79.20

34. Whole Foods Market        77.15

38. Aldi                                       76.96

58. Target                                  73.49

76. Walmart                              67.96
