Abstract

This study addressed the challenge faced by Irna La Perle, a prominent Indonesian Muslim fashion brand, which suffered from limited digital presence and low engagement rates despite a substantial follower base. This situation hampered the brand’s ability to enhance brand awareness and purchase intention, particularly among younger, tech-savvy Muslim consumers. Intense competition from more digitally agile local brands further exacerbated this issue, underscoring the urgent need for Irna La Perle to implement a targeted and interactive social media marketing strategy tailored to evolving consumer behaviors within Indonesia’s Muslim fashion market. Employing a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative analyses, the study integrated internal and external assessments alongside strategic business solutions using the RACE Framework and TOWS Matrix. Findings revealed that social media marketing influenced Irna La Perle’s brand awareness and purchase intention but was underutilized, especially for its daily wear segment. Despite a strong Instagram following, actual brand recognition among Gen Z and Millennials remained low, largely due to promotional focus on premium bridal collections rather than accessible daily wear. Purchase intention showed similar limitations, with most consumers expressing only moderate willingness to buy after engaging with the brand’s content. This gap stemmed from weak storytelling, limited product differentiation, and a mismatch with younger consumers’ preferences.

Abstract

This study assesses the execution of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at PT Vale Indonesia Tbk, emphasizing adherence to established policies and its influence on the company's reputation. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), designed to enhance societal and environmental value, is essential for fostering public trust and customer loyalty. The employed methodology is a descriptive technique utilizing secondary data gathered from annual reports, CSR documents, and literature reviews. The research findings reveal that PT Vale continuously executes CSR initiatives, despite a decline in the number of activities from 667 in 2015 to 82 in 2022. In 2022, the amount of CSR funds given out rose to USD 4.9 million. This shows that these programs are now more focused on quality than quantity.

Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of digitalization, green accounting, and sustainability awareness on sustainability environmental practice among MSMEs in East Java, with socioeconomic conditions as a moderating variable. Using a mixed-method approach, data were collected through surveys of 207 respondents and semi-structured interviews with 15 informants. The findings reveal that green accounting significantly enhances environmentally friendly practices, while digitalization and sustainability awareness show no direct effect. Furthermore, socioeconomic conditions do not moderate the relationships between the independent variables and environmental practices. These results highlight the persistence of the intention–behaviour gap, as MSMEs often recognize environmental issues but fail to implement systematic green practices due to limited literacy, resources, and external support. The study provides theoretical contributions to the application of the Theory of Planned Behaviour in the MSME context and practical implications for policymakers to strengthen incentives, regulations, and green literacy programs for sustainable MSME development.

Abstract

This study examines the role of financial technology (fintech) as a moderating variable in the relationship between financial literacy and financial inclusion on personal financial management among the productive age group in Malang City. The research approach used is explanatory quantitative with purposive sampling technique, resulting in 113 respondents who met the criteria. The data were analyzed using multiple regression analysis and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the help of SPSS 22. The results show that: (1) financial literacy has a positive and significant effect on personal financial management; (2) financial inclusion does not have a significant effect on personal financial management; (3) fintech cannot moderate the effect of financial literacy on personal financial management; (4) fintech is proven to moderate the effect of financial inclusion on personal financial management. These findings reveal the complexity of the dualistic role of fintech—on the one hand, it is unable to strengthen the influence of financial literacy, but on the other hand, it has succeeded in transforming financial access into better management capabilities. This study makes an important contribution to the development of financial behavior theory in the digital era and has practical implications for regulators and fintech service providers in designing more effective financial education and digital financial service strategies.

Abstract

The food and beverage industry in Indonesia has experienced rapid growth, driven by increasing consumer demand and evolving market dynamics. As one of the world’s largest instant noodle-consuming countries, Indonesia presents a highly competitive environment for food brands. In this context, product innovation and consistent product quality are crucial for maintaining consumer loyalty and securing a long-term market position. Supermi, a long-established instant noodle brand, faces intense competition from newer and more innovative brands. To remain competitive, it is essential for Supermi to understand the factors influencing consumer repurchase behavior. This study aims to analyze the influence of product innovation and product quality on repurchase decisions, using Supermi as a case study. A quantitative research method with a descriptive approach was applied, involving 95 respondents selected through random sampling. The research was conducted among students of the Management Study Program, Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” East Java. Data were collected through an online questionnaire distributed via Google Forms and analyzed using SmartPLS 3.0. The results show that both product innovation and product quality play an important role in encouraging repurchase decisions. These findings highlight the need for continuous product development and quality assurance to enhance customer retention in a highly saturated market.

Abstract

This study aims to examine how business process reengineering accompanied by the implementation of an ERP system (Odoo) can improve the efficiency and accuracy of internal processes in a multi-unit SME in Indonesia. The background to this study is the challenges of cross-unit business coordination, manual process inefficiencies, and lack of data visibility that impact internal supply chain performance. This research employs a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews and field observations, verified through business process modeling and simulation using Bizagi Modeler.The research findings indicate that the business processes prior to the redesign, with ERP implementation, were characterized by fragmented coordination of raw materials, slow approval processes due to manual procedures, and inaccurate data recording. Projected results indicate that process time can be reduced by up to 75%, inventory discrepancies can be reduced by 15% to 3-5%, and cross-unit miscommunication can be significantly reduced. Simulation results using Bizagi show that the total number of lots that can be produced over 60 days increases from 980 to 991 lots. The average time for internal production can be reduced from 3 days and 5 hours to 2 days and 17 hours as recording accuracy improves through the ERP system. These findings emphasize the importance of in-depth process analysis, top management commitment, and structured change management strategies for the successful implementation of ERP systems.
