Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM) has announced that the company was included on Newsweek’s inaugural list of ‘America’s Most Trusted Companies 2022.’
The ‘America’s Most Trusted Companies 2022’ list is presented by Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The awards list features 400 companies across 22 industries with Williams-Sonoma, Inc. prominently featured as one of America’s most trusted retailers.
“We are proud that our people-first company culture and our commitment to industry-leading ethical and sustainable business practices continues to build trust with our customers, shareholders and employees,” said Laura Alber, president and CEO of Williams-Sonoma, Inc.
The companies that made ‘America's Most Trusted Companies 2022’ list were identified in an independent survey based on a vast sample of approximately 50,000 U.S. residents who rated companies they know on three touchpoints of trust — customer trust, investor trust and employee trust. A total of 110,000 evaluations were submitted. All stock exchange-listed companies with a revenue of more than $500 million in 2020 were considered in the study, which was conducted in the third quarter of 2021.
