The growth of coffee consumption in Indonesia presents challenges for Kopi Kenangan in maintaining customer loyalty amidst the increasingly competitive beverage industry. This study aims to analyze the influence of service quality and product quality on customer loyalty at Kopi Kenangan, Ruko Sultan Hasanuddin, Binjai City, both partially and simultaneously. The research employed an associative quantitative approach with 96 respondents selected through incidental sampling. The research instrument was a questionnaire designed with indicators representing the dimensions of service quality and product quality. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, partial tests (t-test), simultaneous tests (F-test), and determination tests to identify the contribution of independent variables to the dependent variable. The findings reveal that service quality and product quality have a positive and significant effect on customer loyalty. For service quality, the tangible indicators, such as store comfort and adequate facilities, are dominant factors that enhance customer satisfaction. Meanwhile, for product quality, the performance indicators, including coffee taste and product consistency, play a crucial role in fostering customer loyalty. Loyalty is reflected in repeated purchases, brand commitment, and resistance to competitor products. Nevertheless, the study also indicates that menu variation has not fully encouraged repeat purchases, highlighting the need for greater product innovation. Recommendations include improving store environment comfort, providing staff training for optimal service delivery, ensuring taste and quality consistency, developing product design innovation, and implementing experience-based marketing strategies along with loyalty programs. These efforts are expected to strengthen emotional bonds and enhance Kopi Kenangan’s competitiveness in the long term.

This study looks into how customer happiness and taste affect Mie Pangsit Apilin's recurring business in Bireuen.  The investigation was carried out at Mie Pangsit Apilin in Bireuen using a quantitative approach.  Although the precise quantity is unknown, the population consists of all customers that bought Mie Pangsit Apilin goods in 2024.  One hundred people participated in the study.  The findings of the regression analysis show that hypothesis Ha1 is validated, suggesting that flavor influences repeat purchases to some extent.  This is demonstrated by a significance value of 0.005 < 0.05 and tcount > ttable at a 5% significance level (2.884 > 1.660). Similarly, tcount > ttable (4.180 > 1.660) and a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05 corroborate hypothesis Ha2, which demonstrates that part of the relationship between customer satisfaction and repeat purchases is positive.  Furthermore, hypothesis Ha3 is validated, showing that flavor and customer happiness work together to significantly influence repeat business at the same time.  While the coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.490 indicates that 49% of the variance in repeat purchases can be explained by taste and customer satisfaction, with the remaining 51% influenced by factors not examined in this study, the correlation coefficient (R) of 0.700 shows a strong relationship between the independent variables and repeat purchases.

For Burger Bangor, actively responding to and leveraging these reviews can be an essential strategy for improving customer trust and increasing purchase intentions, ultimately contributing to sustained competitiveness in the food and beverage industry.

This research presents a phenomenological inquiry aimed at deconstructing the conventional marketing paradigm and offering a deeper understanding of alternative practices. It specifically explores the anti-marketing strategy grounded in Islamic values as implemented at Warung Jendil Mbah Yamah, a traditional micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) located in Blitar, East Java. Employing a qualitative approach combined with a phenomenological method, the study gathered rich and nuanced data through several techniques, including in-depth interviews with nine carefully selected informants, participatory observation over an extended period, and systematic documentation studies. The thematic data analysis conducted by the researchers revealed that the warung’s anti-marketing strategy rests firmly on three interconnected pillars: (1) a strong reliance on organic word-of-mouth  communication rather than paid advertising, (2) the deliberate creation of an authentic, personal, and inclusive customer experience that builds emotional bonds with visitors, and (3) the consistent integration of Islamic ethical values into every aspect of business operations. These findings provide a meaningful theoretical contribution by synthesizing the concepts of anti-marketing and Islamic entrepreneurship into a new model of “authentic marketing,” where ethical and spiritual values serve as the strategic foundation for long-term sustainability. In practical terms, the results offer guidance for the broader development of MSMEs in Indonesia, showing that authenticity, ethical commitment, and adherence to core values can represent a stronger and more sustainable competitive advantage than conventional promotional strategies.

This study investigates the differences in customer satisfaction levels toward the services of Bank Syariah Indonesia by employing a nonparametric statistical approach. Customer satisfaction is a critical benchmark in Islamic banking, as it not only reflects the quality of services but also the extent to which sharia compliance is embedded in financial practices. Given that satisfaction data are generally ordinal and may not fulfill the assumptions of normal distribution, nonparametric methods such as the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests were selected as the primary analytical tools. This research adopts a qualitative library-based method by reviewing relevant literature, scientific articles, and previous empirical studies to construct a comprehensive understanding of customer satisfaction measurement within Islamic banking. The findings highlight that variations in satisfaction are influenced by multiple factors, including service speed, staff friendliness, accessibility of digital platforms, and clarity of sharia principles applied in daily operations. Results further suggest that demographic characteristics and service usage frequency significantly shape satisfaction differences across customer groups. Theoretically, this study enriches the body of knowledge on the application of nonparametric statistics in Islamic banking research, while practically, it provides actionable insights for Bank Syariah Indonesia in formulating adaptive service strategies. These contributions are expected to assist the bank in strengthening customer loyalty, enhancing competitiveness, and sustaining growth in the dynamic modern banking industry.

In the current era, the land transportation sector in Indonesia is still in the development stage, both for private and public use. The needs of modern society, which demands that everything be more practical and efficient, has led to an increase in demand for motor vehicles, especially car rental services, every day. This study uses a quantitative method with a focus on analyzing data obtained from questionnaires. The independent variables in this study consist of price (X1), promotion (X2), and service quality (X3), while the dependent variable is customer decision (Y). The research data was collected from 100 respondents who used SJ Trans Rent Car services in Sidoarjo and analyzed statistically using SPSS version 25. The analysis results show a regression model of Y = 1.791 + 0.148X1 + 0.220X2 + 0.227X3 + e. If the values of X1, X2, and X3 are zero, then the Y variable remains at 1.791. However, a one-unit increase in price perception contributes positively to customer decisions, as do effective promotions and good service quality, which have a significant impact on increasing customer decisions. The three variables were found to have a positive relationship with Y, both partially and simultaneously. These findings confirm that the right pricing strategy, effective promotion, and high-quality service are important factors that service providers must consider in order to increase competitiveness and build customer loyalty in the car rental industry.

The coal blending process conducted by PT. Bukit Baiduri Energi (PT. BBE) aims to achieve coal quality specifications that align with customer requirements. PT. BBE possesses multiple coal seams with varying quality characteristics, necessitating a carefully planned blending system with precise proportions to produce coal products that meet market demands. The objectives of this study are: to plan the quantity and quality parameters for coal blending, to evaluate the actual outcomes of coal blending in terms of quantity and quality, and to identify the factors contributing to discrepancies between the planned and actual coal quality following the blending process. To determine the optimal quantity and quality of each coal product in the blending plan, the simplex method was employed with the assistance of POM-QM for Windows version 5 software, alongside the weighting factor method. The final coal blending plan resulted in a total of 55,000 MT with the following quality specifications total moisture of 20.00% (ar), ash content of 6.10% (ad), total sulfur of 1.65% (ad), and a calorific value of 5,350 kcal/kg (ad). The actual blending outcome yielded the same quantity of 55,000 MT, with quality parameters as follows: total moisture of 20.18% (ad), ash content of 5.60% (ad), total sulfur of 1.35% (ad), and a calorific value of 5,340 kcal/kg (ad). The analysis of quality discrepancies revealed several contributing factors the presence of water accumulation in the ROM Stockpile following rainfall, which increased total moisture, the inadvertent inclusion of foreign materials into the feeder, resulting in elevated ash content, the unintentional mixing of coal from different product types, which led to inconsistencies in total moisture, ash content, total sulfur, and calorific value, and the rise in total moisture, which adversely affected the calorific value.

The silver craft center in Sukawati District, Gianyar Regency, Bali faces significant challenges related to product marketing in the digital era. A heavy reliance on offline sales through exhibitions and tourists has resulted in slim profit margins for artisans, making their economic conditions highly vulnerable to fluctuations in visitor numbers. Additionally, silver artisans face difficulties in managing digital marketing, including limitations in writing attractive product descriptions, lack of understanding of product photography, and insufficient skills in managing social media and online stores. This situation adversely affects market reach, especially for international consumers who cannot access these products directly. To address these issues, the Japanese Literature Study Program at Mahasaraswati University Denpasar collaborated with Shitennoji University, Osaka, to conduct a community service program focused on mentoring digital marketing for silver craft products targeting the Japanese market, particularly with Yanyan Silver, one of the cooperative partners. The community service activities lasted for two months, beginning with observation and situation analysis on June 14, 2025, and concluding with evaluation at the end of August 2025. The Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach enabled active participation from artisans in every stage of the activity, from problem identification, planning, implementation, to evaluation. This approach ensures that the solutions produced are tailored to local needs and context. The marketing strategy employed used an integrated marketing mix covering product, price, promotion, and distribution through digital platforms. This facilitated easier customer access in Japan and enhanced Yanyan Silver’s brand awareness. These efforts positively impacted expanding market reach, improving the economic stability of artisans, and strengthening the competitiveness of silver craft products internationally, especially in the Japanese market.
