Background of the Study
Rebranding involves changing the corporate image, logo, product design, or overall identity of a business to revitalize its market presence and improve customer perception. It is particularly significant in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector, where competition is high and customer preferences shift frequently (Akinwale & Musa, 2024).
In Jigawa State, FMCG companies often adopt rebranding strategies to retain existing customers and attract new ones. However, the effectiveness of these strategies varies, with some companies experiencing improved customer retention while others struggle to achieve desired outcomes. Studies by Bello and Ibrahim (2023) highlight that effective rebranding positively influences customer loyalty and market performance.
