What Is the Net Promoter Score (NPS)?
Customer satisfaction and loyalty are critical to long-term success, yet they can be difficult to measure. The Net Promoter Score (NPS) is one of the most widely recognised and effective tools for understanding how customers truly feel about a business.
NPS is based on a single, straightforward question:
- “On a scale of 0 to 10, how likely are you to recommend [Company] to a friend or colleague?”
Based on their response, customers fall into one of three categories:
Promoters (9–10): Loyal, enthusiastic customers who actively recommend your business
Passives (7–8): Satisfied but neutral customers who may be open to alternatives
Detractors (0–6): Unhappy customers who may discourage others
The NPS is calculated by subtracting the percentage of detractors from the percentage of promoters, producing a score between -100 and +100. It’s a simple metric, but one that delivers powerful insight into customer experience and brand loyalty.
What an NPS of +84 Represents
In most sectors, a score above +50 is considered strong. Scores above +70 are relatively uncommon. The average NPS is +32 and the top 25% have an NPS of +72 or higher. At +84, Speedy Freight’s result reflects a broad base of customers who are willing to actively recommend our services.
Against a logistics industry benchmark of approximately +38, this performance indicates that our service standards, communication processes, and operational reliability are resonating clearly with customers.
Importantly, NPS is not influenced by marketing messaging - it is determined directly by customer experience. The score reflects day-to-day execution across collections, deliveries, specialist consignments, account management, and customer support.
Speedy Freight’s Continued NPS Success
Achieving an NPS of +84 is a milestone we’re incredibly proud of. With the logistics industry average sitting at +38, our result highlights the consistency, reliability, and service excellence our customers have come to expect from Speedy Freight.
Sustaining a score at this level year-on-year reflects the dedication of our entire team and our ongoing focus of putting customers at the heart of everything we do.

Why NPS Matters
