Research, practical and social implications: The research will provide insight into how retailers can improve their service quality to meet customers' expectations. The findings will also be useful for retailers in developing strategies to improve customer satisfaction and loyalty. The results will also have practical implications for customers in terms of their expectations and perceptions of service quality.
