Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out how to improve the brand image and loyalty of cafe by recognizing that social culture of middle school cafe, which is an important service quality in cafe establishment, emerges as a main characteristic of new coffee business. First, reliability, confidentness, professionalism, accessibility, and socio - culturality of the service quality of coffee specialty shops improve brand image. Confidence and professionalism play an important role in enhancing brand loyalty, and brand image has a significant effect on brand loyalty. Respectively, Among the service quality, social culture has a strong influence on brand image but it is not a direct influence on brand loyalty. Second, in the relationship between brand loyalty of coffee service quality, brand image shows full mediation effect on reliability, partial mediation effect on confidence, professionalism, accessibility, socialcultural property, and mediation effect on response and empathy. Third, as a result of analyzing the moderating effects of coffee shop types on the relationship between service quality and brand image of coffee specialty shops, reliability, confidentiality, and accessibility are positive factors in the nationwide franchise. On the other hand, in the private $caf{\acute{e}}$, professionalism and socio-culturality are the main factors for improving the brand image. In the case of the local franchise, similar to the franchise in the country, the improvement of service quality for responsiveness and professionalism is a positive factor Respectively. As a result, nationwide franchise $caf{\acute{e}}s$ have priority in enhancing brand image and brand loyalty through accessibility and assurance of service quality. On the other hand, in case of local franchise $caf{\acute{e}}$, it can be seen that the service quality is enhanced and the brand image and brand loyalty can be further improved through service professionalism and accessibility. On the other hand, regional cafes are more important than national franchises or local franchise cafes, and a strategy to enhance customer loyalty is needed through service strategies emphasizing socio - cultural aspects.

본 연구는 커피전문점의 서비스 품질 요인 중 사회문화성이 새로운 커피 비즈니스의 주요 특성으로 대두됨을 인식하고, 이를 통해 카페의 브랜드 이미지와 충성도의 향상방안을 모색해보고자 함을 연구목적으로 한다. 분석대상은 전문브랜드 카페와 지역브랜드 및 개인카페를 분류한다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 커피전문점의 서비스 품질 중 신뢰성, 확신성, 전문성, 접근성, 사회문화성이 브랜드 이미지를 향상시키며, 확신성, 전문성이 브랜드 충성도에 향상요인으로 작용하며, 브랜드 이미지는 브랜드 충성도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 서비스 품질 중 사회문화성은 브랜드 이미지에는 강한 영향요인이 되지만 브랜드 충성도에는 직접적인 영향을 미치는 요인은 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 커피서비스 품질의 브랜드 충성도간의 관계에서 브랜드 이미지는 신뢰성에는 완전매개효과를 나타내며, 확신성, 전문성, 접근성, 사회문화성에 대해서는 부분 매개효과를 나타내며, 대응성과 공감성에 대해서는 전혀 매개효과로 작용하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 커피전문점의 서비스 품질과 브랜드 이미지간의 관계에 대한 커피전문점 유형의 조절효과를 분석한 결과, 전국 프랜차이즈는 신뢰성, 확신성, 접근성이 긍정적 향상요인으로 작용하며, 사회문화성은 도리어 브랜드 이미지는 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 개인카페는 전문성과 사회문화성이 브랜드 이미지 향상에 주요요인으로 작용하며, 지역 프랜차이즈의 경우는 전국 프랜차이즈와 유사하지만 대응성, 전문성에 대한 서비스 품질 향상이 브랜드 이미지 향상에 긍정적인 향상효과요인으로 작용한 것으로 나타났다. 결과적으로 전국 프랜차이즈 카페는 서비스 품질 중 접근성과 확신성을 통해 브랜드 이미지와 브랜드 충성도를 높이는 전략이 우선적이다. 반면, 지역 프랜차이즈 카페의 경우는 서비스 품질 중 확신성이 강화되고, 서비스 전문성과 접근성을 통해서 더욱 브랜드 이미지와 브랜드 충성도를 향상시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있다. 반면, 지역기반의 개인카페들은 전국단위의 프랜차이즈나 지역프랜차이즈 카페들보다도 전문성 강화가 중요하며, 사회문화성을 강조하는 서비스 전략을 통해 고객들로 하여금 브랜드 충성도를 높이는 전략이 필요하다.
