Garrigues has once again ranked among the 100 companies with the best reputation in Spain, according to the Merco Empresas ranking. This time, it ranks 61st, marking an improvement over last year’s results. It is also the only law firm among the top 100 companies and has led the legal sector ranking since 2009.

Fernando Vives, CEO of Garrigues, ranks 52nd among the country's 100 most highly regarded business leaders in the Merco Líderes ranking, 20 spots higher than last year’s ranking.

Given the rise of AI and the growing importance of GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) for businesses, Merco has compiled its first-ever ranking of the brands most favorably perceived by artificial intelligence, in which Garrigues ranked fourth.

The ranking of the most reputable companies is once again led, for another year running, by Inditex, Mercadona, and Grupo Social Once. Rounding out the top 10 are Repsol, Iberdrola, CaixaBank, BBVA, Mapfre, Santander, and Coca-Cola.

The Merco Empresas ranking is compiled through an exhaustive analysis of more than 64,700 surveys, while the Merco Líderes ranking is based on the opinions of more than 1,600 participants.
