초록

사회적 기업의 지속가능한 성장을 위해서는 사회적 문제 해결뿐만 아니라 지속적 수익 창출도 병행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 사회적 기업이 고객과 장기적 관계를 유지할 수 있는 고객 성과에 초점을 두었으며, 고객 신뢰, 고객 만족, 고객 충성도를 고객 성과의 주요 요인으로 고려하였다. 그리고 고객 성과에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 사회적 기업과 고객 간의 가치 일치성, 가격 공정성, 서비스품질을 도출하였다. 대구광역시 동구에서 운영하는 사회적 기업을 이용한 소비자 204명을 대상으로 연구 모형을 분석하였다. 연구 모형 분석 결과 사회적 기업에 대한 고객 만족은 고객 신뢰와 고객 충성도에 긍정적 영향을 미쳤으며, 고객 신뢰도 고객 충성도에 긍정적 영향을 미쳤다. 사회적 기업이 추구하는 가치와 고객이 추구하는 가치의 일치성이 높을 때, 고객 신뢰와 고객 만족이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 그리고 서비스 품질도 고객 신뢰와 고객 만족 형성의 핵심 요인임을 알 수 있었다. 하지만, 가격 공정성은 고객 만족에 긍정적 영향을 미쳤지만, 고객 신뢰에는 부정적 영향을 미쳤다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 사회적 기업이 제공하는 제품이나 서비스에 대한 소비자들의 구매 의사 결정 매커니즘을 이해하는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

Social enterprises are entities to pursue solving societal problems with maintaining commercial viability. In order for a social enterprise to achieve commercial viability, it must be able to provide products that consumers can satisfy, to make social enterprise trustable, and to establish a lasting relationship with customers. This study suggests that perception of value congruence, price fairness and service quality will affect customer performance such as trust, satisfaction and customer loyalty. And this structural relationship was confirmed through structural equation modelling. The empirical results show that customer trust and satisfaction can be improved when the value congruence is high and service quality is high. Meanwhile, the perception of price fairness has a negative effect on customer trust. However, considering the influence of price fairness on customer satisfaction, the total effect of price fairness on trust is not significant. This result implies that customers are less sensitive to social enterprise product prices than general companies. And customer satisfaction for the social enterprise is positively affecting trust and loyalty, and customer trust is also positively affecting customer loyalty. After the empirical analysis, this study suggests implications for social enterprises to improve customer performance and secure commercial viability.
