Showing known brands in your shop has many advantages both for you and for your customers, especially in an online store, where quality cannot be "touched" and a product might be easily under- or overestimated. Not only do well known brands attract customers and grant you more visibility, but your customers will feel much more confident when buying, because the brand itself is a guarantee of quality.
