Introduction

Background of Study

A successful marketing management is about making decisions that are customer driven, taking into consideration the changes  in consumer taste/behaviour while evaluating the different strategic alternatives available,

To make sure that any choice made must satisfy the need of the consumer, motivate and influence his buying decisions. Hence marketing begins and ends with the consumer.

Bank location is studied here as a factor and influence on customer banking behaviour to enable us learn why some banks in the industry perform below average in terms of the scope of geographical coverage and profit turnover over a period, since it  is customers that make banks what they are.

Several theories in the field of marketing discovered that marketing activities are goal/ target oriented. Bank location is very central to attraction and patronage of target customers.

So influencing the customers banking behavior unto high patronage is possible through location of bank branches closer to the customers business area, to achieve the goal of the banking industry.
