Consumers are the main asset for growth anddevelopment of business. So it is important to keep them satisfied in order to get success inindustry. When consumers are ready to purchase product frequently, then it is important toregular improve quality and features of products. This research is based on ZARA which is one of the leading brand in in fashion industry.ZARA is Spanish Fashion retailer in Arteixo Spain. Its parent company is Inditex. ZARA hasgood brand image because this provides god quality products within affordable prices.

Brand loyalty is the topic which helps to getsuccess in industry with easy growth and development. Hence importance of this topic is tounderstand impact of consumer's brand loyalty on business sales and profitability. With thistopic, it is easy for researcher to understand policies with which long term relations can bemaintained with consumers. As there are many organisations which are dealing in fashion retail sector such as Marksand Spencer, Charles, etc. Hence there is competition in market. For instance: as compared tocompetitors, dresses of ZARA are expensive, then consumers may shift to other brand. This hasimage on consumer brand loyalty and sales of association in negative manner (Basile and Faraci,2015).

product and services can be launched in society. Hence advertisement not not manipulatingactual product and services. These days, there is use of social media sites for advertising in newand innovative manner.1.2 Establish the importance of the problemIn case of ZARA, there is issue in brand image of organisation because they areconsistent to their policies. This affects performance of overall organisation as compared to otherenterprises in industry. Brand image of ZARA is not good in current years. This is because ofchange in trends and managers of ZARA are not able to plan these changes properly. They arenot accepting change in trend which is biggest issue of drop of sales (Batkovskiy and et. al.,2016). Sales of ZARA is not dropped down by one third in 2016. sales gets down by £58.3millions to £39.2 millions. As per research, it is identified that they are paying dividend of £30.5million which is low as compared to £47 million in 2016. This is the issue faced by ZARA incurrent year, so there is reduction in their consumers. But sales is increased by 13% to £602.7million. This issue affects performance of ZARA in industry because employees, shareholders,etc. may withdrawal their consent to perform activities. With reduction in profits, employeesmay get dissatisfied and they do not want to continue with ZARA. Same with shareholders, ifshare value is going down, then this affects performance of overall company (Zara's UK profitsdrop sharply despite record sales, 2019).With conducting this research, it is easy to plan ways through which sales can beimproved. As role of ,angers is important to maintain and improve brand image. With increasingbrand image, it is easy to improve brand loyalty. So this topic is best and reliable as per currentsiltation of ZARA and market trends.1.3 Aim of the research project“A critical analysis of consumer's brand loyalty on sales and profitability of businessenterprise.” A case on ZARA.2
