The Axios Harris Poll 100, based on an annual survey of 42,935 Americans, used a two-step process to find out. First, the survey determined the public’s “top-of-mind awareness of companies that either excel or falter in society,” deeming the 100 “most visible companies.” They were then rated by a second group of Americans using seven key dimensions of reputation—affinity, ethics, growth, products/service, citizenship, vision, and culture. The brands were scored on a 100-point scale where the lower the score meant the poorer the reputation. From the 100 brands ranked, which included everything from media companies to wireless carriers, we picked out the retail brands that have at least some kind of brick-and-mortar presence. Then, we looked at the lowest scoring ones to determine the least trusted retailer among consumers. Read on to find out what it is.
