  • A new Morning Consult survey revealed the top 20 brands that Gen Z adults love most.
  • Tech reigned supreme, nabbing the top 4 spots, with Apple trailing behind at #20. Food and drink brands were another common favorite.

It's no surprise that tech brands are popular with digitally native Gen Z, but new data shows just how much.

A new survey from Morning Consult asked thousands of Gen Z adults (ages 18 to 25), which brands they viewed either "somewhat" or "very" favorably, and the top four slots all went to FAANG companies.

Snack foods and candy were also a hit, capturing several of the top spots.

Here are the top 20 brands most popular with Gen Z adults, in ascending order:

20. Apple: 75.92% of Gen Z adults have a favorable impression
