Purpose - Customer loyalty and citizenship behavior are key success factors of franchise system. They make the management of franchisee more effective and efficient. Prior studies, however, mainly dealt with only acquisition utility of customer, such as perceived product/service quality and brand reputation to explain customer loyalty and citizenship behavior, which explains only on one side. We tried to investigate the effect of exchange utility of customer, such as relationship strength and psychological obligation together with the acquisition utility. In addition, we tried to investigate the relationship between customer loyalty and citizenship behavior in franchise context. Research design, data, and methodology - This study used data collected from the dining franchisee managers of 342 franchisors in South Korea. The franchisors consist of more than ten franchisees, the majority of which participated directly in the transaction with franchisor and have worked for more than six months. To test the hypotheses, the study used structural equation model analysis. Results - H1-1, 1-2, 1-3 predicted that acquisition utility would increase customer loyalty to franchisee. In support of H1-1, 1-2, 1-3, the results indicated that acquisition utilities such as perceived product value, perceived service value, and franchise brand reputation had positive effects on customer loyalty. H2-1, 2-2 predicted that exchange utility would increase customer loyalty to franchisee. In support of H2-2, the result indicated that psychological obligation had positive effects on customer loyalty like other acquisition utilities. However, H2-1 was not supported. Relationship strength had no significant effect on customer loyalty. H3 predicted that customer loyalty would increase customer citizenship behavior. In support of H3, the results indicated that customer loyalty had positive effect on customer citizenship behavior. Overall, the evidences generally supported the hypotheses. Conclusion - The results of the study show that not only acquisition utility but also exchange utility increases customer loyalty to franchisee and also show that customer loyalty increases customer citizenship behavior. Interestingly, however, relationship strength has no significant effect on customer loyalty. These results have two implications. The one is that increasing exchange utility can improve customer loyalty as acquisition utility can. The other one is that both of customer utilities can improve customer citizenship via customer loyalty.

본 연구는 외식 프랜차이즈 주류 매장의 점포 혼잡성이 이용자의 지각된 가치와 재방문의도에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 우리나라 외식 프랜차이즈 주류 매장 관리자에게 전략적인 시사점을 제공하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 서울·경기지역에 소재하고 있는 외식 프랜차이즈 주류 매장에 방문한 경험이 있는 고객 361명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고, AMOS 23.0과 SPSS 23.0 통계프로그램을 사용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 외식 프랜차이즈 주류 매장의 점포 혼잡성이 지각된 가치에 미치는 영향을 실시한 결과, 매장의 점포가 혼잡할수록 고객들의 지각된 가치가 낮아지는 결과를 나타냈다. 둘째, 이용자의 지각된 가치가 재방문의도에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 이용자의 지각된 가치가 높을수록 재방문의도도 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 지각된 가치의 매개효과를 실시한 결과, 인적혼잡성과 재방문의도 간의 관계에서 지각된 가치의 하위요인인 실용적 가치와 쾌락적 가치는 모두 매개효과를 나타냈다. 그러나 공간적 혼잡성과 재방문의도 간의 관계에서는 지각된 가치의 하위요인 중, 실용적 가치는 매개효과를 보인데 반해, 쾌락적 가치는 매개효과를 나타내지 않았다. 본 연구는 국내 외식 프랜차이즈 주류 매장에 대한 이론적 정립 및 실증적 연구로 제시하였다는데 의의가 있다.
