#1 in MFP copier category in Brand Keys’ Customer Loyalty Engagement Index

Konica Minolta has exceeded the expectation for the sixthteeth consecutive year reciving first place in Brand Loyalty. This win proves that Konica Minolta goes above and beyond customer expectation among all brands competing in the category.

Brand Keys is a New York based client loyalty and engagement consultant. They publish the annual syndicated study, which is what recognized Konica Minolta for Brand Loyalty in “MFP Office Copier” category. The Brand Keys’ presents detailed information of the category drivers that engage customers, engender loyalty and drive real economic gain.

This year expectations have been higher than ever and have been found to be predominantly emotional, as consumers consider social advocacy, political tribalism and the economic landscape in their evaluations. This is a substantial shift on how customers review and compare brands, making the gap between customer and brand delivery wider than ever. Making it a challenge to maintain  brand profit while simultaneous shrinking this gap.

“Customer experience takes top priority in our business plans as we strive to retain our current clients and attract new ones, and we are so pleased to know that our efforts to meet their ever-evolving expectations continue to be successful,” said Kay Fernandez, Senior Vice President, Marketing, Konica Minolta. “We are so proud to have maintained the loyalty of our customers year after year despite ongoing challenges, and truly appreciate the trust they place in us.”

This year’s Brand Keys Customer Loyalty Engagement Index examined customers’ relationships with 987 brands in 110 categories. The index recognizes the brands that receive the highest loyalty and engagement assessments. Companies are able to surpass competitors for responding to the category values customers desire most. Making Konica Minolta come out on top once again when it come to any category.

“Because expectations are more emotionally-based today, brands can have a difficult time identifying and tracking them,” said Robert Passikoff, Brand Keys Founder and President. “Konica Minolta is one of those ‘hero’ brands that have pretty much ‘owned’ the #1 spot in their categories long enough to earn a ‘perennial loyalty’ designation, and for that we offer our hearty congratulations.”
