Publix, Chick-fil-A and Residence Inn are the only companies among close to 300 to earn “excellent” scores for delivering positive emotional experiences, according to a Temkin Group study of 10,000 U.S. consumers that gauged positive and negative emotions.
These companies were followed by H-E-B, True Value, Kroger, Save-a-Lot, Wawa Food Market, QVC and Amazon.
The report found that the supermarket and fast-food industries earned the highest average Temkin Emotion Rations, at the “okay” level, while health plans, TV service providers and Internet providers were at the bottom with “very poor” ratings.
The companies that earned the lowest ratings were Comcast, Fujitsu, Health Net, Blue Shield of CA, Anthem, Time Warner Cable, Commonwealth Edison, Medicaid, Charter Communications and AT&T.
