Background of the Study
Promotional strategies are essential tools for driving customer attraction and boosting sales in the competitive retail sector. Techniques such as discounts, loyalty programs, and advertising help retailers like Shoprite stand out in crowded markets, especially in emerging economies like Nigeria (Robbins & Judge, 2023).
In Bauchi State, Shoprite utilizes various promotional strategies to appeal to diverse customer segments and increase foot traffic. However, the effectiveness of these initiatives in achieving sustained customer attraction remains underexplored (Ahmed & Musa, 2024).
This study examines how promotional strategies employed by Shoprite impact customer attraction, with the aim of identifying best practices for retail success.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of Shoprite’s promotional strategies and suggests improvements to enhance customer attraction.
