Customers will need to enter personal information into the system so that Kudler can keep records of customer purchases. Also this will allow Kudler to keep track of the number of loyalty points that each customer has earned and the number of points that have been redeemed. In addition this will help Kudler build its customer database and keep the data organized to allow Kudler to keep providing the best service to its customers. The system will be able to track the products purchased by its customers and the frequency in which they buy those products.

The greatest benefit of the frequent shopper program will be building a strong and loyal customer base that will continue to shop at Kudler Fine Foods for all of its specialty food needs.
