Summary:Every supplier wants to create and retain a loyal customer who engages in continued profitable business. Customer loyalty is the measure of success of the supplier in retaining a long term relationship with the customer.

When a loyal customer has repetitive requirement of the same product, such customers may be described as being ‘brand loyal’.

Some conclusions are provided in the research and the researcher also stated several recommendations.
