Mighty Ape Swings Into Top Spot In Kantar's Customer Leadership Index!

Company

Add a comment By Tim

We are thrilled to announce Mighty Ape has taken the top spot in Kantar's Customer Leadership Index for 2023!

The Kantar Customer Leadership Index comes from a survey of 2,500 New Zealanders. Participants were asked about their experience with over 60 of New Zealand’s leading brands in banking, insurance, online shopping, retail, grocery, media, entertainment, travel, telecommunications, energy, and car repair. We are so proud to have taken the top spot for customer experience over all these categories for 2023!

David Thomas, Kantar New Zealand’s Chief Commercial Officer mentioned “Mighty Ape is an inspiring example of a local brand with an absolute focus on delivering excellent customer experiences.” He called out our Jungle Express story and how our superior delivery experience contributed to our success in the index. We're so proud of Jungle Express! The service has grown quickly from a COVID-19 necessity to a sophisticated delivery service with same-day delivery in Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch – 7 days a week!

We work super hard to offer the best online shopping experience for New Zealanders and that means constant improvement in our product range and how fast we can deliver! The upcoming opening of our Christchurch distribution centre marks a significant milestone for our commitment to our customers! We're looking forward to holding even more products with new levels of fast delivery across New Zealand.

Plus, we've got two runner-up prizes which includes a NANOLEAF Matter Lightstrip Smarter Kit with a 4D Screen Mirror Lightstrip bundle, and a NANOLEAF 15 Panel Light Kit!

There arrrr 8 hidden treasure chests around our site. They look like this (pictured) and they've been sneakily buried at the bottom of 8 product pages. You're going to need to use your pirate intuition to find all 8 treasure chests to go in the draw for the prizes aye aye?!

You'll find treasure chests in the following departments – Games, Electronics, Books, Toys, Music, Board Games & Puzzles, Movies and Collectibles.

To make the Treasure Hunt a little easier, Blackbeard has generously provided eight handy clues to help you locate them!

If you are new to our Treasure Hunts and would like a head start we’ve provided a link to the Brown treasure chest solution below – open the link, scroll to the bottom of the product page, and then click on the treasure chest at which point it'll open, indicating that you've found it. This will help to give you a feel for how our clues relate to the products and where to look to find them.
