Initial survey results show that consumers in the Makale region have specific preferences for tempeh packaging and quality, but business actors have not incorporated these preferences into their production and marketing strategies. This gap calls for an intervention to develop a strategy based on a systematic, contextual mapping of consumer preferences. Using a mixed methods approach with an explanatory sequential design, the study was conducted in two stages: first, quantitative data collection and analysis, followed by qualitative data collection and analysis to clarify and deepen the results. The study found that consumer preferences for Jeslyn tempeh are primarily influenced by sensory qualities (taste, texture, aroma), cleanliness, affordability, hygienic packaging, distribution ease, and promotion. The Likert scale analysis showed that most indicators had an average value above 4.20 (percentage index > 84%), indicating high to very high consumer satisfaction. Taste (mean 4.52; index 90.4%) and texture (mean 4.44; index 88.8%) were the most influential factors, followed by price and cleanliness. Consumer loyalty is built through consistent quality and emotional attachment to local products. Producers should maintain product quality, improve hygiene, introduce simple innovations, and use social media for cost-effective promotion.

The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, direct observations, documentation, and questionnaires, ensuring a holistic understanding of both internal and external conditions.

The findings reveal that AK Laundry possesses several strengths, including good relationships with its loyal customer base, competitive pricing that appeals to a wide range of market segments, and a strategic location that facilitates accessibility. However, weaknesses were also identified, such as limited promotional efforts, particularly in digital channels, and occasional delays in completing customer orders, which may affect satisfaction and trust. From an external perspective, AK Laundry has opportunities to expand its services, particularly through the growing demand for pickup and delivery facilities, as well as changes in consumer lifestyles that increasingly prioritize practicality and efficiency. Nevertheless, the enterprise must also address potential threats, such as intense competition in pricing strategies among similar businesses and the risk of item loss, which could undermine its reputation.
