Question
Define a consumer.
Solution
A consumer is the one who purchases the product for his/her own need and uses or consumes it.

Any single or group of people, other than the buyer who buys the product or services, consumes the product by seeking his/her permission falls under the category of a consumer. In simpler words, the consumer can be termed the end-user of the goods or services.
