The latest Roy Morgan customer satisfaction findings show that Supercheap Auto is the Auto Store of the Month for October with a satisfaction rating of 86%, taking it to five monthly satisfaction award wins for 2019. With two awards remaining to be announced for the year, Repco, currently on three monthly awards, is the only brand that could possibly draw equal with Supercheap Auto in the race to the 2019 finish line.
The Roy Morgan Auto Store Customer Satisfaction Report shows Supercheap Auto holding a slim lead, with its customer satisfaction rating putting it only just ahead of both Autobarn (85%) and Repco (85%).
These newly released ratings have been taken from the Roy Morgan Single Source survey, compiled by in-depth face-to-face interviews with over 50,000 Australians each year in their homes.
Roy Morgan CEO Michele Levine says Supercheap Auto has maintained remarkably stable satisfaction ratings for the past five years, yet despite this finds itself only marginally ahead of its competitors.
“Looking back six years ago, Supercheap Auto was on exactly the same customer satisfaction rating, 86%. In some of the consumer markets we track, a rating in the 90s is required to stay ahead of the pack, but within Auto Stores a score around this mark has been enough to keep the brand ahead of its rivals each year. Repco will be hoping to change the story to some degree this year.”
