One of the most important things in channel of distribution is the management of intrachannel conflict. In this study, 1 tried to find out the major sources of conflict among distribution channel members of gasolin industry and home electronics industry which have two types of distribution channels - sales branch and agency. I also investigated how the level of conflict influences the business performance of the channel member. The results of the study showed that the imbalance of power, nonfulfillment of roles by manufacturers, nonfulfillment of roles by dealer, divergence in perceptions, intrachannel communication problem have positive relation but role clarity has negative relation with conflict. The results also indicate that the more power supplier exerts upon dealer, the less supplier and dealer practice their roles, and the more communications problem there is, there will be more conflict between channel members. I also analyzed the relationship between conflict and business performance and the result came out as expected: the more conflict there is the less business performance. Some difference was found between sales branch and agency on that aspect. Managerial implications and limitations of the study were also discussed.

The purpose of this study is to examine a relationship between the headquarters and the sales offices of a car manufacturing company by comparing their channel types. It examines how the level of communication and commitment of sales offices on their headquarters differently affects some mediating effects between participation and relationship performance. It also tries to find out what kind of mechanisms are needed in order to improve the relationship. Through the data analysis of a total of 200 sales offices which are directly managed stores and agency stores by a domestic car manufacturing company, the following conclusions were reached: Participation, one of the variables in bureaucratic structuring, influences all dimensions of communication. Also, it has found that communication dimensions influence commitment dimensions differently by the type of channels, and commitment dimensions influence relationship performance by the type of channels. Recently, import car makers are accelerating their moves in the domestic market, and the importance of a customer-oriented retail innovation and a relationship management in an auto manufacturing industry is increasing. This study will give an useful suggestion on how to improve a long term relationship of distributors through an enhancement of communication and commitment.

The ownership structure of a franchise system is determined by the franchisor's strategic choice. A close look at the extant theories and perspectives in economics and management such as resource scarcity theory, agency theory, transaction cost analysis, and mixed ownership theory reveals that firms choose their ownership structure for the sake of economic efficiency, profit potentials, the chance of survival, and other strategic concerns. The present study, on the basis of strategic choice perspective, reviews the divergent theories of a franchise system's ownership structure and its determinants, thus providing a theoretical framework for comparing the contradictory arguments along the several critical dimensions. We also developed and tested the conflicting hypotheses regarding key determinants of ownership structure including firm's age, size, transaction-specific investments, uncertainty, and risk-sharing propensity. Using a FDD (Franchise Disclosure Document) data set of 543 Korean franchisors, we found that the years in business, the total number of employees, days of training, the inverse of the years of franchising, and the requirement of royalty payment have positive relationships with the proportion of company-owned outlets to total number of outlets. On the other hand, the proportion of company-owned outlets was found to have negative relationships with the total number of outlets and the extent of geographic dispersion of outlets, but to have no significant relationships with the initial investment required and the inverse of contract length. Based on the findings, we provide several theoretical and managerial implications for studying ownership structure of franchise systems.

This study was conducted to prepare a countermeasure for turnover due to the effect of education satisfaction at franchise stores on turnover factors through the medium of education requirements. In the method of collecting data, 237 copies of the questionnaire method were used as the final data. The results are first, the analysis of educational requirements in general characteristics shows that academic background (F=5.655, p<).01), Analysis of the factors for turnover shows that position (t=-2.809, p<).Significant differences were shown in 01. Second, educational satisfaction is the educational requirement (r=-.16, p<).The correlation between 05) and turnover factors (r=-.18) is significant, and the educational requirement is turnover factors (r=.53, p<).It is shown to be a significant static correlation with 01. Third, designers (B=.25), t=2.332, p<.05) and educational requirements (B=.88, t=9.313, p<).001) has been shown to have significant static effects. Fourth, the educational requirements for educational satisfaction and turnover factors are significant (β=.52, p<).We can see that it is fully mediated by 001.Therefore, it is believed that it will be possible to investigate quarterly satisfaction and demand after communication and training with workers at direct stores, and reduce turnover through various curriculum education.

중소유통업에 종사하는 대부분의 사람들은 평생 생계수단으로 동네 상권에 자리잡고 그간 외부의 큰 영향 없이 자생적인 영업을 수행해 왔다. 그러나 삶의 질 향상 등에 따른 소비자 욕구의 다양화, 사업 환경의 변화는 유통시장에도 많은 변화를 가져오게 되었다. 대기업 자분의 대형할인 마트가 우후죽순처럼 생겨나면서 전통재래시장 및 골목슈퍼 등은 생존의 위기에 직면하게 되었다. 이에 정부에서는 전통시장 및 골목상권 살리기에 많은 정책지원을 하고 있으나, 최근 골목상권에 대기업의 SSM(직영점, 가맹점 형태)이 생기면서 대기업과 중소상인 간 갈등과 지역적 마찰이 지속되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 SSM과 경쟁을 위한 영세중소유통업체의 취약 요인들의 분석을 시도하였다.

The results of the study showed that the imbalance of power, nonfulfillment of roles by manufacturers, nonfulfillment of roles by dealer, divergence in perceptions, intrachannel communication noise have positive relation but role clarity has negative relation with conflict. The results indicate that the more power manufacturer exerts upon dealer, the less manufacturer and dealer practice their roles, and the more communications noise there is, there will be more conflict between channel members. I also analyzed the relationship between conflict and business performance and the result came out as expected, the more conflict there is the less business performance. Little difference was found in sales branch and agency on that aspect.
