Customer feedback provides invaluable insights that can help businesses enhance their products and services. In today's Text Analytics class project, we analyzed consumer reviews for a popular fruit delivery service, applying advanced text analytics to uncover prominent themes and sentiments, highlighting areas for enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Dataset Overview

The dataset analyzed consists of hundreds of customer reviews, each rated on a scale from 1 to 5. To gain a clearer view of overall sentiment, ratings of 4 and 5 were considered positive, while ratings of 1 and 2 were classified as negative..

• Positive Reviews: 67.5%
• Negative Reviews: 31.5%

While the majority of feedback was positive, recurring issues in the lower ratings provided critical insights into areas requiring improvement, particularly around fruit quality and delivery timing.

Word Cloud Insights

Word clouds helped visualize frequently mentioned terms across both positive and negative reviews. Positive feedback prominently featured words such as “fresh,” “ripe,” and “delicious,” indicating customer satisfaction with the product's quality. Negative reviews, however, frequently included terms like “bruised,” “late,” and “overripe,” suggesting dissatisfaction with delivery quality and timing.

Digging Deeper with N-Gram Analysis

To dive deeper, we used n-gram analysis to capture common two- and three-word phrases that highlighted specific aspects of customer experience:

• Top Positive Phrases: “perfectly ripe mangoes,” “delivered on time”
• Top Negative Phrases: “bruised apples,” “late delivery,” “overripe bananas”

This analysis revealed that while customers valued the taste and quality of fresh fruit, concerns arose around packaging and timeliness, particularly for sensitive items like bananas and apples.

Key Takeaways and Actionable Insights

1. Improving Packaging: Reinforcing packaging to prevent bruising during transit could reduce complaints about damaged fruit and improve the customer experience.
2. Timely Delivery: Ensuring prompt deliveries, particularly for sensitive items, could boost customer satisfaction and reduce negative feedback.
3. Promoting Quality: Positive reviews reflect strong brand loyalty and appreciation for product quality, indicating that marketing efforts can emphasize freshness and convenience to attract new customers.
