Abstract

Digitalisation is playing a very crucial role in India during the COVID-19 lockdown. Grocery items are one of the essential commodities needed by the people during the lockdown. The sales of online grocery stores rose abnormally during the pandemic and stores faced a lot of problems while delivering grocery items to consumers. It becomes very difficult for them to deliver the products on time and maintain the satisfaction level of the consumes. During that time, huge online reviews were posted by consumers on different digital platforms. This study focussed on analysing those reviews and developing a supervised machine learning model. Sentiment analysis is used to develop the classification model. TF-IDF followed by naïve Bayes classification techniques is used to do the sentiment analysis. The developed model helps the online grocery stores to deal with huge online reviews and segment the consumers based on their positive and negative reviews.
