The research utilized the purposive sampling method. The study's sample size consisted of 170 participants. The data gathering methods employed in this study encompassed surveys, documentation, and the utilization of Likert scales to assess the instrument. The data underwent analysis through the utilization of the structural equation model partial least squares (SEM-PLS) modeling technique. The results of this study suggest that there is a considerable relationship between corporate image and relationship marketing, and their impact on consumer loyalty. Furthermore, the influence of corporate image and relationship marketing on customer satisfaction is also substantial. Enhancing customer happiness can lead to an increase in customer loyalty.
