Abstract

Early morning delivery possesses distinct characteristics that differentiate it from standard delivery services. This service typically involves delivering products to customers during the early morning hours, primarily before 7 AM. While online early morning delivery offers various advantages from a customer perspective, it also presents challenges that sellers and online shopping companies need to overcome. The early morning delivery market is experiencing significant growth in the online food retail sector, incorporating both PC-based online shopping and mobile shopping. The objective of this research is to identify the factors influencing customer satisfaction and the intention to reuse in the context of early morning delivery for online shopping. To model the online shopping environment with early morning delivery, independent factors were categorized into three types: System Properties, Product Characteristics, and Delivery Characteristics. This study examined the relationships among these three independent factors, the mediating factor of customer satisfaction, and the dependent variable of the intention to reuse. To conduct this research, empirical validation of the research hypotheses was carried out using the final dataset for analysis. Within this study, the previously explored System Properties, Product Characteristics, and Delivery Characteristics were established. Summarizing the findings of the analysis, it was discovered that System Properties and Product Characteristics played a significant role in determining the quality of early morning delivery services for online shopping. While product diversity and convenience had a positive impact, it is noteworthy that Delivery Characteristics did not influence customer satisfaction. Consequently, it can be concluded that there is no effect on the intention to reuse.

새벽배송은 일반 배송 서비스와는 다른 고유한 특성을 가지고 있다. 이 서비스는 일반적으로 새벽 시간대, 주로 새벽 7시 이전에 제품을 고객에게 배송하는 것을 의미한다. 온라인 새벽배송에는 고객측면에서 다양한 가치를 제공하는 반면 판매자와 온라인 쇼핑몰과 같은 서비스 제공자 측면에서는 극복해야 할 적지 않은 도전과제를 가지고 있다. 새벽배송 시장은 PC기반 온라인 쇼핑과 모바일 쇼핑을 합친 온라인 식품판매에서 성장세가 확대되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 확대되어 가는 온라인 쇼핑 새벽배송에 대한 고객만족과 재이용의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 규명하고자 한다. 온라인 쇼핑 새벽배송 환경을 모형화하기 위해 독립요인을 다음 세 가지 유형으로 분류하였다: 시스템 특성, 제품특성, 그리고 배달특성. 그리고 본 연구에서는 세 가지 독립요인, 고객만족 (매개요인), 그리고 재이용의도 (종속변수)와의 관계를 실증적으로 탐색하여 보았다. 분석결과, 온라인 쇼핑의 새벽배송 서비스품질에 시스템특성과 제품특성이 영향을 미치는 것으로 조사되었으며, 특히 시스템특성 중에 신뢰성, 편리성, 유용성, 그리고 상호작용, 제품특성 중에는 제품품질, 제품가격, 제품다양성, 제품간편성이 고객만족에 정(+)영향을 주는 것으로 조사되었다. 하지만 배달특성은 고객만족도에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치지 못하고 있다는 결과가 나왔다.
