Overland Park, Kan. , Oct. 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The employee-owners of nationwide propane logistics company Ferrellgas, long known for providing excellent customer service, are taking time this week to celebrate National Customer Service Week.
This special week received an official proclamation by the U.S. Congress in 1992 to help recognize the importance of good service along with those committed to providing it every day. It is honored each year by businesses around the world the first full business week of October. This year’s event runs October 4-8 and features the theme “Heart of Service.”
“National Customer Service Week comes at the perfect time for Ferrellgas, as this is the beginning of that time of year when propane homeowners count on us most,” said Chief Operating Officer Tamria Zertuche. “Propane customers are like any consumer. They want to be listened to and they want a provider that’s easy to do business with. They want someone they know will always have their back. This week we are thanking those Ferrellgas customer service professionals who are the very heart of the service we offer throughout entire year, whether our customer is heating their home or using a Blue Rhino tank to create a memorable backyard experience.”
Zertuche said Ferrellgas remains focused on investing in state-of-the-art technology and implementing tools used by both employees and customers to ensure great service and a great customer experience. She added the company has a number of plans in place throughout the week to focus on the importance of customer service and celebrate Ferrellgas’ many service successes. Meetings held by corporate and operations teams throughout the week will have a customer service focus, and employees will have opportunities to recognize service successes by their co-workers.
