4th Consecutive Year for Topping MASTIO’s Ranking of Major Marketers
OMAHA, Nebraska – Tenaska Marketing Ventures once again ranks in the top spot among major natural gas marketers when it comes to qualities like dependability in meeting commitments, reliability of gas supply and accuracy of gas scheduling, according to the 21st edition of an industry-wide benchmarking study.
The MASTIO & Company Natural Gas Marketer Customer Value/Loyalty Benchmarking Study has featured Tenaska in the top spot for the quality award for the Major Marketers Group for four consecutive years and in one of the top two spots nine times in the past decade.
“Customers have once again ranked Tenaska at the top for customer value,” said Kevin Huntsman, MASTIO & Company’s senior vice president. “Tenaska continues to surpass the high expectations of customers. The latest benchmarking study attests that customers recognize the expertise of the people at Tenaska and value those collaborative relationships. With consistently high levels of performance, paired with high scores for honesty, trustworthiness and ease of doing business, it’s not surprising to see why Tenaska continues to achieve the top ranking.”
The 2017 study is based on 554 interviews with industrial/commercial customers, local distribution companies and independent power producers in the U.S. and Canada rating their natural gas suppliers. In addition to a handful of open-ended questions, respondents rated gas suppliers based on 31 quality attributes that identify and quantify the perceptions and needs of natural gas customers.
“Tenaska’s success is a direct result of its team of experienced employees. Their customer-focused approach to providing supply chain management services has resulted in this top ranking four years in a row,” said Fred Hunzeker, president & CEO of Tenaska Marketing Group. “Since 1991, our employees have focused on building long-term relationships with our customers and providing the responsive and reliable services needed in all types of market conditions.”
Tenaska Marketing Ventures is repeatedly ranked by Platts Gas Daily among the top five natural gas marketers in North America, with 9.5 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas sold or managed in 2017, a volume equal to 10 percent of total U.S./Canadian natural gas consumption. CapacityCenter.com continues to rank Tenaska among the very largest capacity release traders in the United States.
