Company Credits
Volkswagen was a top climber, moving to number one from the number six spot in Overall Ranking by Brand, and has been in the top 10 in this category since the rankings' inception in 2010.
Carrin Merkel, Head of Marketing for Volkswagen, says: "We are humbled but excited to be the most awarded brand at the 2013 Loerie Awards. The Loeries remains our yardstick for measuring the success of our advertising in South Africa.
"We have built our brand heritage primarily through emotional television communication and we see our encouraging success in digital marketing as a new era for Volkswagen advertising.
"The Volkswagen brand has a proud heritage of emotional and memorable brand communication and a six decade legacy of stand-out advertising in South Africa. We must thank and share our success with Ogilvy- our strategic and creative advertising partner for more than 33 years."
Mercedes-Benz has retained the number two spot for the third consecutive year. Claudia Walters, Marketing Manager for Mercedes-Benz Cars, says: "Mercedes-Benz is delighted to be recognised as one of the highest achievers in the 2013 Loeries Official Rankings.
"As a progressive and innovative brand, we have an obligation to our customers to provide the "best or nothing" in all that we offer - which includes the manner in which we showcase our products. This achievement confirms our commitment to these goals."
Frank.net moves to number three from eighth place in 2011. John Maxwell, CEO of Frank.net, says: "We are delighted that our partnership with FoxP2 has enabled us to be the third most awarded brand at The 2013 Loerie Awards, and this builds on the brand's achievements at The Apex, Cannes and D&AD Awards."
