Brand Association, Perceived Quality, Customer Satisfaction, Brand LoyaltyAbstract
This study investigates the relationships between brand association, perceived quality, customer satisfaction, and brand loyalty among Pediasure consumers in Pontianak. Using PLS-SEM and a sample of 100 respondents, findings show that brand association significantly influences both customer satisfaction and loyalty. Perceived quality primarily impacts satisfaction, with limited direct influence on loyalty. Customer satisfaction mediates the relationship between brand association and loyalty, but not between perceived quality and loyalty. These results highlight the crucial role of strong brand associations and high-quality products in fostering customer satisfaction, a key driver of brand loyalty, offering valuable insights for the nutritional product industry
