I'm not sure PwC would be considered a household name. And BP has gas stations.

BP literally sells gas at BP branded gas pumps, that’s pretty consumer in my book.

Well, used to, until the 2010 oil spill, when like, every convenience store rebranded their gasoline offering (even if it still comes from BP).

It hasn't been called 'British Petroleum' for 18 years, since it merged with Amoco, an American company.

Really? I would be surprised if more than 10% of Americans have heard of PwC.

I am an American and I had to look up PwC. That said, you can be a household name outside of America.

Pretty sure PwC used to run television commercials for branding / brand awareness.

Doesn’t British Petroleum sell Petroleum from Britain?

I’ve certainly bought it at a BP-branded petroleum station before.

Enron also didn't have any consumer products, but I think is still a household name.

BP has gas/petrol stations, so close enough?
