Jim Chambers, CEO of NetGrocer.com comments, “Our goal is to provide households in the lower 48 states a fast, hassle free way to restock their pantries using name brand, non-perishable household products. The rankings not only reward our efforts, they showcase the excellent customer service we strive for. The pursuit to provide shoppers with reliable service and innovative shopping solutions is an ongoing effort and one that will never stop at NetGrocer.”

In its review, Gomez noted, “NetGrocer.com’s customer service performance was excellent on the phone as well as through e-mail during our tests this quarter. All responses came back accurate and in a timely fashion. This site is one of the only sites that offers continuous replenishment — the ability to have items purchased every week automatically shipped to your door.”
