clientele
This term describes a collective body of customers rather than individual people. It carries a professional or upscale connotation, often implying a specific demographic or a shared social status among the patrons. While a business has customers, a high-end gallery or a specialized law firm has a clientele.
Grammatically, this is a collective noun. While it refers to a group, it can be used with an indefinite article to describe a specific type of customer base, such as "a diverse clientele." It typically takes a singular verb when the group is viewed as a single unit, though it can occasionally take a plural verb in British English to emphasize the individual members.
Meanings
The collective group of customers or clients who regularly patronize a particular business, professional person, or establishment.
The boutique attracts a wealthy clientele from the surrounding neighborhood.
