  • Kia Wins Customer Service Award of  the Year

KIA Motors Nigeria has over the years distinguished itself in the industry and hinged its business operations on providing exceptional customer service to meet the ever-increasing demands of customers.

This unflinching resolve earned the brand the award for the best customer service provider and the winner of the 2016 Nigeria Customer Service Award (NCSA) in the automobile category.

In this year’s edition of the Nigeria Customer Service Award held at the Civic Towers in Lagos, Kia was singled out for superior customer service. The award is recognition of the brand’s proactive practices, continuous improvements, and dedicated resolve to streamline its processes to make service offering more customer-focused. It recognises the top-rated industry players by assessing customer satisfaction, responsiveness and customer experience features as indicators of exceptional achievement. In view of this, Kia’s exceptional service has helped edged it above competition to be awarded the best service provider in the auto industry.

We encourage Nigerian companies to go beyond paying lip-service and eye-service to customers because the customer deserves better”. He further stressed that the award is unique because it reflects the opinions of customers at every touch point by providing companies with a glimpse into what potential customers really think of their brand and showcasing their perception strengths.
