Apple has been named the world's most valuable brand after the release of its smartwatch and iPhone 6S helped push up sales.
Google is second while Coca Cola came third according to the list of the top 100 brands put together by Interbrand.
Apple is worth an estimated at 170.276 billion US dollars, the equivalent of £112.177 billion, according to the report.
Digital companies dominate the list with 13 technology brands in the top 100 - including Facebook - which has seen its value jump by more than half (54%) in the past year - Microsoft and Samsung.
Burberry is leading the charge for British brands, coming 73rd in the list.
Cara Delevingne, Kate Moss and Romeo Beckham have all fronted campaigns for the luxury clothes brand, which is valued at 5.873 billion US dollars (£3.869 billion).
The humble Mini, still made in Oxford but owned by German company BMW, is a new entry at number 98, while British car manufacturer Land Rover is at number 87 on the list.
Rebecca Robins, Interbrand regional director, said: "With an increase in brand value of 14%, Land Rover continues its ascent after entering Best Global Brands for the first time in 2014.
"In a year where the values of the British brands have seen a mixed pattern, luxury continues to sustain a more consistent trajectory, with Burberry increasing its brand value by 5%."
The ranking is based the firm's financial performance, its influence over customers, and the strength of the brand to command a higher price or secure earnings for the company.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
