Reason

The note released by ESPM reveals that the month of August was the one that presented the best performance in the automotive sector, as it reached 77.6% of consumer satisfaction. "The rise is due to the launch of the model of one of the brands analyzed with new generation of multimedia equipment," he reports.

The best result of the food industry happened in April of 2016, with satisfaction of 68.4%. According to the balance sheet, the number calculated is the result of the action of one of the brands to publicize the product. Already in September, the degree of satisfaction shrank to 59.3%, as a confusion among shareholders of one of the leading brands in the sector marked negative comments on the internet.

The month of January, 2016 was responsible for the best performance in department stores, with a satisfaction rate of 68.9%. The analysis indicates that the reason was megaliquidation after the Christmas period. However, the month of March was the one with the worst index in the segment, since consumers reported problems in the delivery deadlines of purchases made in January, difficulties in accessing e-commerce sites, and complaints about service in shops. In that month, the category INSC reached 62.5%.

In the segment of consumer electronics, the need for a brand to call the consumer to recall a product, generated the second worst performance of 2016. The drop was 8pp in the consumer satisfaction rate in September, which reached 62 %. In November, the indicator rose to 69.6%.
