In Brazil, generic or anonymous products (produtos anônimos) are increasingly popular among budget-conscious consumers. The trend reflects both economic pragmatism and growing acceptance that quality and brand prestige are not always correlated. In Portugal, 'marca branca' (white label) is the preferred industry term. In North America, store brands and generics represent a significant market segment competing directly with name brands, particularly during economic downturns.
