The current study uses quantitative methods by collecting data accidentally through surveys of Indomaret and Alfamart minimarkets consumers in Kediri City. Using Hair et al.'s theory, the sample was determined to be 150 respondents. All data obtained were analyzed using path analysis via the SPSS and AMOS applications. The study results indicate that the role of location (captive market) is able to mediate the linkage between purchase interest and consumer purchase decision.
