The dataset for this research consists of a sample of 2,000 consumers, distributed in three major cities in Crete. Ten product hyper-categories consisting of 102 product categories were identified through the regional grocery retailers. The collected data is analysed initially by rank-order and product-moment correlation. Afterwards, categorical principal component analysis was applied for clustering customer segments with similar demographic and consumption patterns. The study introduces a regional overview of category management practices and provides a detailed identification of the grocery retail market. This study also shows the mainstream profile in a relatively small regional retail market | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/4505 | ISSN: | 17558069 | DOI: | 10.1504/IJDATS.2012.047821 | Rights: | © 2012 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology |
