Abstract

This community service activity aims to support efforts to organize traders based on economic zones in order to improve accessibility and consumer comfort in Gowa Regency. The background of the activity is based on the problem of suboptimal trader arrangement, characterized by low spatial order, obstacles to pedestrian access, and decreased consumer comfort in traditional trading areas. The method used is a participatory and collaborative approach through the stages of problem identification, economic zoning design, mentoring and educating traders, and monitoring and evaluation. The results of the activity indicate that the implementation of economic zoning can improve stall order, improve area accessibility, and create a cleaner and more comfortable trading environment. In addition, active participation of traders in the arrangement process increases a sense of ownership and compliance with the zoning agreement. From the consumer perspective, this arrangement has a positive impact on ease of access and shopping comfort. This activity is based on an adaptive and contextual economic zone-based trader arrangement model, and has the potential to be replicated in other regions. Overall, this service contributes to strengthening the local economy, improving the quality of public spaces, and the sustainability of trader businesses in Gowa Regency.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the influence of the Member Card Promotion strategy and social media on Customer Loyalty at the Kaku Food Sudiang Branch in Makassar. A quantitative research design was employed, utilizing a survey method with a sample of 90 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to evaluate the structural relationships between the variables. The results revealed that while MCP had a significant positive effect on customer loyalty, the impact of SOM was statistically insignificant. The model demonstrated a moderate explanatory power, indicating that the combined strategy effectively explained a substantial portion of the variance in loyalty. These findings suggest that membership-based incentives are the primary drivers of customer retention in this context, whereas social media serves as a secondary engagement tool. The study highlights the need for Kaku Food to prioritize enhancing its membership program benefits while refining its social media content to bridge the gap between digital engagement and actual customer loyalty.
