Amazon.com Inc is designating products sold by certain companies as “top brands”, a test that if widely implemented could ease tension between the online retail giant and big-name companies used to favorable positioning at brick-and-mortar retailers.

The company appended a “top brand” label to products from Speedo, New Balance, Under Armor and Fruit of the Loom in some product search results, Marketplace Pulse, a New York e-commerce research firm, said on Friday. An Amazon spokeswoman confirmed the company is testing the label on fashion items, basing the designation on brands that are popular with customers.
