A convenience store is considering changing its layout to encourage impulse
buying. The triangular flow matrix below gives the measure of association
between different product groups (e.g., beer, milk, magazines). A plus sign (+)
indicates a high association, such as between beer and peanuts; a minus sign (-)
indicates a repulsion, such as between beer and milk; and a zero (0) indicates no
association.
Determine a layout that will encourage impulse buying by placing high-association
product groups close to one another.
