Customer Satisfaction Towards Food Delivery Services in Selangor
Abstract
This study explores the key factors influencing customer satisfaction with food delivery services at UiTM Puncak Alam, Selangor. Despite the rising demand for food delivery services, issues surrounding the quality and accuracy of delivered food remain significant challenges. This study seeks to address these concerns by identifying and analyzing the determinants that shape customer satisfaction with food delivery services in Malaysia, specifically in Puncak Alam. We adopted a quantitative research approach to gain comprehensive insights into these issues. We collected data using judgment sampling, a non-probability sampling technique and used the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) to analyze the responses through descriptive statistics and correlational analysis. The study involved a structured survey of 357 respondents, investigating the impact of three key variables—food quality, app ease of use, and food packaging—on customer satisfaction. The findings provide important implications for businesses and institutions looking to enhance the quality of food delivery services and elevate customer satisfaction levels. By identifying these critical factors, the research offers valuable insights that can help food service providers, policymakers, and industry stakeholders refine their strategies. These insights will not only improve the customer experience but also encourage broader adoption of food delivery services within the Malaysian population. Ultimately, the study’s conclusions hold significance for enhancing service quality and fostering customer loyalty in the increasingly competitive food delivery industry.
