The increasing concern for the environmental problems has led to the growth of zero-waste stores as a form of sustainable consumption. This study aims to identify consumer segmentation in zero waste stores in North Kuta, Bali, based on preferences and purchasing behavior. Data was gathered through reliable and valid questionnaires involving 80 respondents who had shopped at three zero waste stores. The analysis was conducted using GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model) and FCM (Fuzzy C-Means) algorithms, with evaluation using silhouette coefficient and ICD Rate. The results showed that GMM was more optimal in forming homogeneous clusters (ICD Rate: 0.715). Three main clusters were identified: Eco-Engaged Advocates (respondents who are loyal and environmentally conscious), Value-Conscious Supporters (respondents who focus on product value), and Occasional Shoppers (pragmatic respondents who are responsive to promotions). The findings provide strategic implications for businesses in developing a more adaptive and data-driven marketing approach.
