520 _aConsumer knowledge is when a business carefully studies customers to learn about their wants and needs. Consumer knowledge plays a crucial role in enabling a company to effectively match its business operations with the expectations of its customers. The research design utilized in this study was the quantitative method. The study utilized the Cochran method to calculate the sample size for an unidentified population with undetermined proportions, and a final sample of 369 was used. A questionnaire was used to collect the data from the customers, and the data collected was analyzed using the Stata program. The study found that Implicit knowledge had a positive and significant influence on the customer's planned behaviour, and explicit knowledge displayed a positive and significant influence on the customer's planned behaviour. It was found that the gender distribution of the customer had a negative and significant influence on customerplanned behaviour. It was revealed that the customer's educational level had a negative and insignificant influence on customer-planned behavior. The investigation revealed that the age group had a negative and significant influence on customer-planned behaviour, and Marital status had a positive and significant influence on customerplanned behaviour. By gaining a grasp of the requirements and preferences of their target audience, Dangote Cement Plc may develop a more profound connection with that audience. Gaining insights into customer knowledge might provide valuable information for making judgments regarding competitive positioning. Managers can strategically place products according to clients' expected degree of knowledge and highlight features that strongly appeal to the intended audience. Considering the growing significance of online platforms, managers can utilize social media and online presence to effectively share explicit knowledge, interact with clients, and establish a community. It is crucial to consider this aspect while trying to engage customers with different expertise levels.
