KIND Ranked the World’s Leading Branding Agency
KIND is ranked no. 1 in the World Brand Design Society Global Agency Design Ranking — the global league table that ranks the world’s best consumer and corporate brand design agencies. In an industry defined by intense competition, true leadership is not measured by single wins, but by sustained excellence. Holding the top position reflects long-term performance, international recognition, and continuous delivery at the highest level.
Global Leadership Built on Consistency
KIND continues to hold the top position in the World Brand Design Society Global Agency Design Ranking — the world’s first league table dedicated exclusively to consumer and corporate brand design agencies.
While many agencies compete for individual awards, this ranking measures something far more demanding: long-term performance across multiple international competitions, projects, and categories. It reflects not just creative peaks, but sustained excellence over time.
Five Years of Global Recognition
Over the past five consecutive years, KIND has been named Agency of the Year by World Brand Design Society — a rare achievement that underscores the agency’s consistent leadership in global brand design.
In the most recent edition, KIND placed second in the annual Agency of the Year awards. At the same time, the agency retains its no. 1 global ranking, remaining the world’s leading branding agency based on cumulative league performance. While annual results naturally evolve, long-term leadership is built on consistency — and this position reflects exactly that.
34 International Medals in One Year
In the latest World Brand Design Society Awards, KIND secured 34 international medals, reinforcing its position as one of the most awarded and consistently high-performing branding agencies worldwide.
These results span multiple industries, categories, and markets — demonstrating both creative breadth and strategic depth across KIND’s global client portfolio.
"World Brand Design Society Global Agency Design Ranking ranking represents the most awarded and leading agencies in the field of consumer and corporate brand design worldwide."
