  • Pizza Capers Claims Customer Satisfaction Hat Trick
    Media Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 16th, 2013 Pizza Capers claims customer satisfaction hat trick Retail Food Group’s Pizza Capers has the winning formula when it comes to customer satisfaction. The gourmet pizza franchise has won Canstar Blue’s Most Satisfied Customers Award for Pizza, three years running. Canstar Blue rates products and services to help consumers make the best purchasing decisions for their needs, appointing winners based on customer satisfaction levels. Canstar Blue commissioned Colmar Brunton to survey 2500 Australians on customer satisfaction with pizza. The survey results released today are from the 1450 Australians within that group who had purchased and eaten a pizza (by buying online or in person) from a specialist chain pizza store/restaurant in the last 3 months. Canstar Blue spokesperson Rebecca Logan said Pizza Capers trumped competitors in the pizza store category, securing five star ratings for taste, service, variety and overall satisfaction. “Whether you are eating out or taking away, taste and service are big ticket items. If either of those is lacking then the result is disappointed customers,” Ms Logan said. “Pizza Capers has shown it is solid in both of these areas, scoring five stars for taste and service since we began rating pizza stores three years ago. “Pizza Capers is not necessarily the cheapest pizza but it’s the best according to its customers, who, according to the survey, are the most satisfied pizza consumers of all.” Other pizza stores rated included Crust, which scored five stars for delivery and variety; Eagle Boys which scored five stars for value for money; Dominos which received five star ratings for delivery and its deals; and Pizza Hut.
