Background of the Study
AI-powered recommendation systems have become indispensable tools in the retail industry, offering personalized product suggestions to customers based on their preferences, purchase history, and browsing behavior. These systems enhance customer experience, drive sales, and improve inventory management by leveraging machine learning algorithms and big data analytics (Huang et al., 2023).
In Kano State, the retail sector is expanding, with supermarkets adopting innovative technologies to remain competitive.
