Fourth annual ranking recognizes 700 companies across 23 industries for their commitment to trust among customers, employees, and investors

NEW YORK, March 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Newsweek, in partnership with market research firm Statista, has unveiled its fourth annual ranking of the Most Trustworthy Companies in America for 2025. The list, which spans 23 industries and highlights 700 leading companies, recognizes organizations that have demonstrated exceptional trustworthiness in the eyes of consumers, employees, and investors.

In today’s competitive business landscape, trust is a key factor influencing long-term success. To identify the companies that have best cultivated this invaluable asset, Newsweek and Statista conducted a comprehensive analysis, leveraging both a nationwide survey of 25,000 U.S. residents and an extensive Social Listening analysis of 304,000 online mentions. U.S.-headquartered public and private companies with at least $500 million in annual revenue were eligible for inclusion. Each company’s final score was weighted 80% from survey results and 20% from social listening insights, ensuring a balanced assessment of trust from both direct feedback and broader public discourse.

“The ability to cultivate and maintain trust across multiple stakeholders is an invaluable asset for any company,” said Josh Smith, Senior Director Growth & Strategic Partnerships at Newsweek. “This ranking serves as a resource for consumers, investors, and job seekers looking for companies that have earned a reputation for integrity, fairness, and reliability.”

The 700 most trusted companies span a diverse range of industries, including Technology, Retail, Health Care, Financial Services, Automotive, Media, Consumer Goods, and more.
