Abstract
The purpose of this study is to suggest a clustering approach to define the main groups of baskets in Turkish fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry based on the sectoral decomposition, the total value and the size of the baskets. To do this, based on the information regarding the 2,965,837 baskets (8,147,233 transactions) of 14293 households which took place in the calendar year 2018, alternative unsupervised learning methods such as K-means, and Gaussian mixtures are implemented to obtain and define the basket patterns in Turkey. A supervised ensembling approach based on XG-Boost method is also suggested to assign the new baskets into the existing clusters. Results show that, “SaveTheDay”, “CareTrip”, “Breakfast”, “SuperMain” and “MeatWalk” are among the most important basket types in Turkish FMCG sector.
