The ability to link customer satisfaction with customer loyalty is important in determining the effect of customer satisfaction on organisational performance. Hence, this study aims to determine the influence of corporate image on customer loyalty towards The Coca-Cola Company in the Gambia, particularly how customer satisfaction mediates the relationship between corporate image and customer loyalty. Data were collected from customers of The Coca-Cola Company in the Gambia using cluster sampling and simple random sampling. Structured questionnaires with 10- point Likert scale were administered to the respondents selected through the above sampling procedure.
