FORTUNE Magazine published its annual “World’s Most Admired Companies” list at the start of February and, for the 8th consecutive year, Johnson & Johnson/Janssen is ranked #1 in the Pharmaceuticals category.

Johnson & Johnson is #15 overall, up from #26 last year, and it’s the 19th consecutive year J&J has been included on this prestigious list. We’re proud to have placed in the top 20 of the prestigious list, especially in the face of a global pandemic.

This annual ranking is highly regarded as it reflects the ratings of more than 3,800 corporate executives, directors and securities analysts across nine key attributes of reputation, such as innovation, social responsibility and quality of products.

Attributes such as these have been a hallmark of Johnson & Johnson's work since its founding in 1886, and they are outlined in Our Credo, the company’s guiding mission statement. We’re delighted that the hard work and vision of our employees has been recognised again, and believe this is testament to how we live Our Credo values each day, in all aspects of our business.
