Abstract

The purpose of this study is to suggest positioning strategy according to franchising family restaurant brands. Discriminant Analysis was utilized to suggest methodological framework that seeks to find their relative positions in the family restaurant brands. As a result, the results show that five factors (employee service, physical environment, marketing, accessibility, and food quality) were extracted from Exploratory Factor Analysis that contains twenty three questions related to service quality of family restaurant. Second, Discriminant Analysis revealed that three factors out of five including employee service, physical environment, and accessibility showed the highest discriminant power. Based on the three factors, positioning maps were made and the location of four brands were identified. Third, service quality, satisfaction, and willingness had a significant influence on revisit intention.

본 연구의 목적은 프랜차이즈 패밀리레스토랑의 전략적 포지셔닝 맵을 그리고 실무적 시사점을 제공하는 것이다. 본 연구는 패밀리레스토랑 매출순위와 브랜드가치순위를 참고하여 다섯 곳의 브랜드(빕스, 아웃백스테이크하우스, 애슐리, TGI프라이데이스)를 선정하여 4곳 모두를 이용한 경험이 있는 성인을 대상으로 1500개의 자료를 수집하여 통계분석에 적절하지 않은 24개를 제외한 1476개의 자료를 최종분석에 사용하였다. 총 연구결과를 살펴보면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 요인 분석을 통해 23개의 아이템으로 구성된 다섯 개의 품질 속성(종업원 서비스, 물리적 환경, 마케팅, 접근성, 음식 품질)을 추출하였다. 둘째, 판별분석 결과 4곳의 브랜드에 대한 서비스 품질 요인 중 판별력에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 종업원 서비스, 접근성, 음식의 품질을 2차원으로 표시한 결과와 브랜드별 차이를 분석한 결과에서 아웃백스테이크하우스는 다른 패밀리레스토랑과 비교해 상대적으로 높은 평가를 얻은 반면, TGI프라이데이스와 애슐리는 대체적으로 평가가 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 TGI프라이데이스와 애슐리는 판별력이 높은 종업원의 서비스, 접근성, 음식의 품질 중 종업원의 서비스와 음식의 품질에 대한 차별화 전략을 구사하여야 할 것이며, 향후 새로운 가맹점을 개설 할 경우 접근성을 고려해야 할 것이다.
