Abstract

Technological developments in the food and beverage industry sector triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic have been presented by McDonalds to maintain distance by utilizing the role of self-service technology that prevents direct contact with employees and utilizes the performance of the self-ordering kiosk. Perceived enjoyment is also needed to increase GenZ's desire to have an interest in reusing the self-ordering kiosk at McDonald's. This study aims to determine the effect of self-service technology and perceived enjoyment on interest in reusing the self-ordering kiosk at Gen-Z McDonald's in Medan City. The method used is quantitative by involving 100 Gen-Z people as samples. The results of this study indicate that self-service technology and perceived enjoyment have a significant effect on the interest in reusing the self-ordering kiosk at Gen-Z McDonald's in Medan City by 81.9%. This means that the role of self-service technology and perceived enjoyment felt by Gen-Z is very well realized, although it is still necessary to improve the performance of the self-ordering kiosk in order to have an interest in reusing the self-ordering kiosk.

Abstract

In this era of globalization, consumers are increasingly aware of environmental issues. Consumer behaviour towards environmentally friendly products is a concern in economic sociology. The writing of this article aims to explore the analysis of economics students' behaviour towards environmentally friendly products. This research uses a literature study method, which will involve analysing data from several economics and bussines students in various universities. Environmental awareness, knowledge of environmentally friendly products, economic factors, and social factors are important factors in the decision making of a consumer. Economics and business students as consumers who are aware of environmental issues tend to choose environmentally friendly products. This is of course also influenced by economic factors and consumer social factors. The results of this study provide knowledge in understanding the consumer behaviour of economics and bussines students towards environmentally friendly products. The practical implication of this research is that environmentally friendly product companies targeting economics and bussines students need to consider factors that will influence consumer decision making, including effective and efficient pricing and promotion.

Abstract

In the era of globalization, the smartphone industry has become one of the most competitive and dynamic sectors in the world. This paper aims to examine the tiered value chain as a strategy undertaken by Samsung with its suppliers in global market competition. This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods through literature studies from various sources relevant to the case study discussed. The result of this research is that Samsung chose to produce its own smartphones due to several factors. First, Samsung smartphone products have complex specifications, making it difficult for suppliers to produce them independently. Second, Samsung's smartphone products are difficult to codify, which means they are difficult to document and communicate clearly to suppliers. Third, the capability or ability of suppliers to produce smartphones that comply with Samsung's standards is considered low. Thus, the hierarchy value chain strategy implemented by Samsung in its smartphone production value chain aims to maintain control over the production process and maintain the quality of the products produced, so that it can compete effectively in the global market

Abstract

The role that artificial intelligence can play in enhancing business innovation and creativity in the cosmetic industry in Dubai is considered. Amongst many key factual problems faced by this industry, there is personalization, supply chain optimization, formulation of products, marketing, and branding—issues that remain ethical and private. The conceptual problems addressed are related to the balance between creativity and automation, data quality, and bias, interdisciplinary collaboration, and change management. It aims to understand how AI-powered solutions can contribute to addressing these challenges and serve as a driver of innovation in the cosmetics sector of Dubai. This paper considers previous related literature about AI applications in multiple business functions and some conceptual framework that links AI to creativity and innovation. In this regard, a mixed-method approach will utilize questionnaires, interviews, and case studies to analyze the interlinkages between AI adoption, AI capabilities, data-driven decision making, and cognitive augmentation as they influence firm innovation and creativity. The research is likely to be of benefit to Dubai Cosmetics Firms with critical insights; at the same time, it will complement existing literature on how emerging technologies can help instill innovation in business activity.

Abstract

This study investigates the determinants of Cash on Delivery (COD) adoption in e-commerce through the lens of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). Specifically, it examines the roles of perceived convenience, prior experience, and perceived security in shaping consumer behavior. COD remains a critical payment method in emerging markets where digital infrastructure is limited, and trust in online payment systems is low. The study proposes a quantitative framework involving a sample of 563 e-commerce users to test the hypothesized relationships. Measurement items are adapted from established scales, and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) will be employed for data analysis. The anticipated findings are expected to contribute to consumer behavior literature by offering insights into the psychological and practical drivers of COD adoption. Furthermore, the study aims to provide actionable recommendations for e-commerce platforms to optimize payment strategies in trust-deficient environments.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between brand personality and brand loyalty based on empirical research published in the last five years. The review was conducted using a focused narrative literature review approach, analyzing ten scholarly articles obtained from accredited national and international journals. Inclusion criteria included articles published between 2019 and 2024, empirical studies based on primary data, full-text availability, and a clear focus on the relationship between brand personality and brand loyalty. The findings reveal that, in general, brand personality has a positive influence on brand loyalty, either directly or indirectly through mediating variables such as brand trust, brand satisfaction, brand equity, self-congruity, and customer brand identification. Several brand personality dimensions, such as sincerity, competence, and ruggedness, were found to have a stronger effect on brand loyalty compared to other dimensions. These results highlight the strategic importance of brand personality management in fostering customer loyalty. This review is expected to serve as a conceptual reference for researchers and marketing practitioners in understanding the dynamics between brand character and consumer loyalty in an increasingly competitive brand landscape.
