I'm working on an iOS application where I'd like to be able to display stores with their respective logos. I've spent a while looking for an API that does this and I can't find anything besides XigniteLogos. Unfortunately this is outside of my budget - is there a free solution available?

I think clearbit is another good alternative – Sajjan Gurung Jun 01 '17 at 03:49

This is a very interesting question.
My first thought was that you could try doing a Google Image search. I know Google has a service called Goggles which can recognize logos, so searching the other way must be possible using Google.
I did a sample search on Google Images for "General Mills logo" (I guess I am hungry for breakfast right now) and the first result that was returned was from SeekLogo.com
I am not sure what SeekLogo is, or if they have an API, but they may be exactly what you're looking for. If not, you could try a Google images search and use the first result... (Google does have an image search AIP but... it's been deprecated? The announcement of that says that the documentation / community may have solutions which are still supported...)
