Abstract
In recent years, the Japanese electronics retail store business has continued to develop, and sales promotion activities tailored to customer preferences have become necessary. This study analyzes the relationship between customers and products using ID-POS data of an electronics retail stores. We use pLSA, a clustering method, since it can cluster customers and products at the same time, it is easy to grasp the relationship between them. Based on the result of pLSA sales promotion activities for representative products are discussed using the indicators of loyal customers and recurring purchase.
