Abstract

Ramadhan is a significant moment in the lives of Muslims, bearing not only spiritual meaning but also notable social and economic impacts. One of the distinctive traditions that emerges during Ramadhan is the culture of communal fast-breaking, known as Bukber, which strengthens social interaction while simultaneously driving economic activity, particularly in the culinary and retail sectors. This study aims to analyze the influence of Ramadhan on economic growth and shifts in consumption patterns among the Muslim community in Surabaya, with Bukber culture serving as a mediating variable. This research employs a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods. Data collection was conducted through surveys involving 100 respondents using a Likert-scale questionnaire, in-depth interviews, and direct observation. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) via the SmartPLS 4.0 software. The findings indicate that Ramadhan significantly affects economic growth (? = 0.42, t = 5.25) and changes in consumption patterns (? = 0.55, t = 7.86). The Bukber tradition also significantly influences both economic growth (? = 0.37, t = 4.11) and consumption patterns (? = 0.48, t = 8.00), while also partially mediating the effect of Ramadhan on both endogenous variables. The coefficient of determination (R²) shows that consumption patterns are strongly influenced by Ramadhan and Bukber (R² = 0.63), while economic growth falls within the moderate-to-strong category (R² = 0.58). The mediation effects along the paths Ramadhan ? Bukber ? Economic Growth (? = 0.23) and Ramadhan ? Bukber ? Consumption Patterns (? = 0.30) are also statistically significant. The study concludes that Ramadhan and the Bukber tradition contribute significantly to the socio-economic dynamics of urban communities. Bukber not only reinforces social solidarity but also serves as a driver of local economic development. Therefore, strategic management of this tradition can be integrated into sustainable, community-based economic development policies.

Abstract

The background of this study lies in the branding of Sukorejo coffee, which is still limited to local markets and has not consistently highlighted its flavour profile as a key selling point. Critically, this reflects a particular challenge in creating added value at the level of MSMEs and farmers, thus requiring interventions focused on improving processing quality as well as implementing targeted promotional strategies. This community service activity aims to enchance the knowledge and capacity of the Sukorejo community in coffee processing practices, particularly in the stages of processing, marketing, and strengthening local coffee branding as a flagship product by MSME actors in Sukorejo District, Kendal Regerency. The object of this study is coffee MSME in Sukorejo District. The research method employed is a descriptive qualitative approach intended to provide a detailed account of the community empowerment process in coffee production and roasting in Sukorejo District. The results of this program indicate a strategic direction for the future development of Sukorejo coffee, namely the need for follow-up assistance in business management, financial recording, and digital marketing strategies.
