The focus of this report is mainly on the Customer loyalty of S tar Ceramic LTD. 2. Literature Review: Customer’s loyalty has been defined in very much similar ways by most of the researchers. They have said that it is comprised of customers’ attitudes and behaviors. Components of attitude are represented through repurchase intention, purchasing additional products or services from the same company, willingness to recommend the company to others, demonstration of commitment to the company by resisting to switch to another competitor (Cronin & Taylor, 1992; Prus& Brandt, 1995; Narayandas, 1996; Pearson 1996; Gremler& Brown, 1996 cited in Dhandabani, 2010 and Thakur, 2011), and willingness to pay a price premium (Zeithaml, Berry, &Parasuraman, 1996 cited in Thakur, 2011). Alternatively the behavioral aspect represents actual performing according to the loyal attitude (Feick, Lee, & Lee, 2001 cited in Thakur, 2011). It is actually a feeling of commitment of the consumer to a product, brand, marketer, or services above and beyond that for the competitors in the market place, which results in repeat  purchase (Sz ymigin and Carrigan, 2001 cited in Thakur, 2011). On the other hand, according to Bloemer& Kasper (1995) cited in Mosahab, et al. (2010) loyalty is interpreted as true loyalty rather than repeat purchasing behavior, which is the actual re-buying of a brand, regardless of commitment because customers, who are not loyal, can also demonstrate repurchasing behavior. This may be due to switching costs, lack of perceived differentiation of alternatives, location constraints on choice, time or money constraints, habit or inertia which are not related to loyalty (Bitner, 1990; Ennew&Binks, 1996 cited in Kheng, 2010). High service quality often leads to favorable behavioral intention (Burton et al., 2003 cited in Dhandabani, 2010). But loyalty is driven by satisfaction predominantly (Rust et al., 1995 cited in Dhandabani, 2010) and therefore customer’s satisfaction measurements give a better indication

1. 

Scope of the Study:

This report is about the Measurement of Customer loyalty of Star Ceramic LTD. The focus of

this report is mainly on the Customer loyalty of Star Ceramic LTD.

2. 

Literature Review:

Customer’s loyalty has been defined in very much similar ways by most of the researchers. They

have said that it is comprised of customers’ attitudes and behaviors. Components of attitude are

represented through repurchase intention, purchasing additional products or services from the

same company, willingness to recommend the company to others, demonstration of commitment

to the company by resisting to switch to another competitor (Cronin & Taylor, 1992; Prus&

Brandt, 1995; Narayandas, 1996; Pearson 1996; Gremler& Brown, 1996 cited in Dhandabani,

2010 and Thakur, 2011), and willingness to pay a price premium (Zeithaml, Berry,

&Parasuraman, 1996 cited in Thakur, 2011). Alternatively the behavioral aspect represents

actual performing according to the loyal attitude (Feick, Lee, & Lee, 2001 cited in Thakur,

2011). It is actually a feeling of commitment of the consumer to a product, brand, marketer, or

services above and beyond that for the competitors in the market place, which results in repeat

 purchase (Szymigin and Carrigan, 2001 cited in Thakur, 2011). On the other hand, according to

Bloemer& Kasper (1995) cited in Mosahab, et al. (2010) loyalty is interpreted as true loyalty

rather than repeat purchasing behavior, which is the actual re-buying of a brand, regardless of

commitment because customers, who are not loyal, can also demonstrate repurchasing behavior.

This may be due to switching costs, lack of perceived differentiation of alternatives, location

constraints on choice, time or money constraints, habit or inertia which are not related to loyalty(Bitner, 1990; Ennew&Binks, 1996 cited in Kheng, 2010).

High service quality often leads to favorable behavioral intention (Burton et al., 2003 cited in

Dhandabani, 2010). But loyalty is driven by satisfaction predominantly (Rust et al., 1995 cited in

Dhandabani, 2010) and therefore customer’s satisfaction measurements give a better indication

of future performance of service firms (Anderson and Fornell, 1999 cited in Dhandabani, 2010).

In case of service arena, loyalty is often termed as “observed behaviors” (Bloemer et al., 1999

cited in Mosahab, et al., 2010). Caruana (2002) cited in Mosahab, et al. (2010) opined behavior

as a full expression of loyalty to the brand and not just judgment. An operational definition often

refers to the first product or service which comes to the mind of a person, while making decision

for purchase. Meanwhile, Ostrowski et al. (1993) and Bloemer (1999) cited in Mosahab, et al.

(2010) refer it to the first product or service that a person chooses among products and services.
