Apart from the three awards, Samsung also won “2018 Marketer of the Year” at the Putra Brand Awards, in acknowledgment of Samsung’s brand philosophy over the past year. “This achievement is definitely one that we are extremely proud of.

The Putra Brand Awards is an annual premier brand awards event in Malaysia. Launched in 2010 by the Association of Accredited Advertising Agents Malaysia (4As) in association with the Malaysia’s Most Valuable Brands (MMVB), it recognises brand building as an integral business investment, measured by consumer preference.

In determining its winners, the Putra Brand Awards utilises a robust consumer research method in which 6,000 consumers vote for their favourite brands within multiple categories, therefore establishing Malaysian consumers themselves as the judges and award-givers of this distinguished event.
