Wema Bank Plc., this week, joined other service organisations world-wide in celebrating the 2016 International Customer Service Week. Customer Service Week, which held from October 3rd to 7th, is an annual international event devoted to recognizing the importance of customer service and honoring the people who serve and support customers with the highest degree of care and professionalism.
The bank kicked off the celebration at one of its newly remodeled branches at Admiralty Road, Lekki, Lagos where the Managing Director, Segun Oloketuyi joined some staff and customers for a health and fitness walk.
According to Oloketuyi, “At Wema Bank, fulfilling customer experience has; over the years, remained the focal point of our business strategy. Indeed, it is the only way we seek to differentiate ourselves in the market place. Our brand is built essentially by meeting and surpassing the expectations of our customers – every time, everywhere and with every contact.”
As part of efforts to deliver superior customer experience and in pursuance of its newly acquired national banking license, Wema Bank recently commenced the implementation of a brand transformation initiative focused on a phased branch network expansion and upgrade.
According the bank’s Head of Brand and Marketing Communication, Charles Udoh, “Our resolve to be a part of the annual international customers’ service week is a manifestation of our commitment to sustaining and ultimately surpassing our individual and collective abilities to delight our customers. Indeed, our ultimate goal is to build a brand that is a reference point in offering innovative customer experience driven by technology”.
