The most recalled fuel brand

For the sixth year in a row, Petrobras was the most recalled brand by Brazilian consumers in the "Fuel" category of the Folha Top of Mind Awards. The awarding ceremony was held last Tuesday (10/26) evening, in São Paulo.

We have been leading the ranking of most recalled brands when it comes to fuel since 2005. In this edition, 23% of all interviewee responses, especially among younger people and men, emphasized our brand.

The Folha Top of Mind Award was created 20 years ago by the Datafolha Research Institute for the Folha de S. Paulo newspaper as a way to acknowledge the brands Brazilian consumers recall the most. This 2010 edition had 52 categories, 40 of which in differentiated products and 12 in special categories.
