Summary:

  • Costco, Walmart, and Target lead customer satisfaction rankings in 2024.

  • Chatmeter’s report analyzed over one million customer reviews.

  • Costco shows improvements in operational efficiency but faces staffing issues.

  • Walmart struggles with consistent customer experiences despite a drop in product shortages.

  • Target sees mixed results, with improved associate interactions but ongoing concerns about policies.

Overview of Customer Satisfaction in 2024

In 2024, Costco (COST), Walmart (WMT), and Target (TGT) have continued to lead the customer satisfaction rankings, despite facing various challenges. According to Chatmeter’s 2025 Retail Associates Reputation Ranking report, which analyzed over one million customer reviews, these retailers struggled to secure the top spot, indicating that even the best performers still have room for improvement.

Performance Insights

  • Costco maintained its strong reputation, although it dealt with staffing shortages and long wait times. Notably, there was a 16% decrease in mentions of long wait times compared to last year, suggesting improvements in operational efficiency. However, challenges remain as Costco is pressuring Chinese suppliers for price cuts, which could affect customer satisfaction if not managed correctly.
  • Walmart, despite its large scale and recognition, continues to struggle with delivering consistent customer experiences. Although product shortages have dropped by 25%, mentions of discrimination have risen by 16.5%, posing reputational risks.
  • Target, known for prioritizing customer service, displayed mixed results in 2024. While there was a slight improvement in associate interactions, concerns about return policies and anti-theft measures persisted.

The Top 10 Retailers Ranked by Customer Service

  2. Retailer B - Customer service score: 4.1
  3. Retailer C - Customer service score: 4.05

Retailers are actively working to address these challenges by improving staffing, training, and operational efficiency. However, the ongoing threat of tariffs and shifting supply chains may continue to pose challenges.
