The increased availability of store brand suppliers now provides retailers with opportunities to create their own lines of vertically differentiated multiple store brands within a product category. As the number of store brands increase, the retailer's shelf space becomes more crowded, which may force the retailer to consider dropping some national brands from its assortment. Despite these trends, the problem of product line design in a vertically differentiated product category has been analyzed mainly from a manufacturer's perspective in the marketing literature and it is not known to what extent the findings of the existing product line design literature provide applicable strategic guidelines for the new problem faced by retailers. In this study, we address this deficiency in the literature and conduct an in-depth study of the retailer's strategic design of a line of store brands and its assortment decision within the context of retail category management. We analyze the retailer's decision about not only how to design a line of store brands but also which national brand to drop from its assortment. The results of our analysis are as follows. First, if the retailer has to drop one of national brands from its assortment, it is the best for the retailer to drop the low-quality national brand rather than the high-quality national brand. Second, the retailer has to position the high-quality store brand relatively close to the high-quality national brand, remained on its shelf, in terms of quality so as to maximize the size of retail margin from the national brand. On the other hand, the retailer should set the quality of the low-quality store brand at a lower level than that of the low-quality national brand to increase the total category demand by attracting more price sensitive consumers. By doing so, the retailer can also minimize cannibalization between two store brands. Lastly, our analysis shows that the introduction of a line of store brands improves consumer welfare by increasing real values of all products on the shelf.

아파트 브랜드는 급변하는 국내 주택 시장 환경과 함께 변화하는 수요자의 사회 심리적 욕구를 충족시키기 위한 대안으로 개발되어, 주택 판매 수익 창출에 장기간 긍정적 효과를 창출하였다. 그러나 브랜드 인지도와 이미지 향상에 집중한 판매 전략을 수행한 건설회사들은 거주자 만족도 및 재구매, 구전효과 등을 포함한 브랜드 충성도 구축에 어려움을 겪게 된다. 본 연구는 이러한 한계를 극복하고 균형있는 브랜드 자산의 발전을 통해 건설 회사의 지속적 수익 창출을 위한 전략 제시를 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 국내 건설 시장 및 브랜드 자산 요소들의 특성을 파악하고, 이들의 인과관계 및 자산 형성 과정의 단계별 분석을 실시한다. 또한, 모델링을 통한 브랜드 관리의 무형적 측면에 대한 고려와 형성 과정의 포괄적 분석을 위해 시스템 다이내믹스(System Dynamics)를 적용한다. 브랜드 자산 요소의 인과관계 모델링에 기초하여 주도기업 및 도전기업을 위해 제안된 전략은 건설회사의 장기적 수익창출 및 브랜드 발전을 위해 활용 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

유통업체에서 PB(Private Brand)의 선택확률을 높이기 위하여 기존 PB보다 열등한 다른 PB를 사용하는 전략은 비용적인 측면에서 어려운 문제가 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 이를 해결하고자 2개의 현실적인 실험방법을 통해 PB의 유인 및 타협효과를 검증하고자 한다. 검증결과를 살펴보면 제조업체 브랜드(NB; National Brand)와 PB에 새로운 브랜드인 무상표(GB :Generic Brand)를 추가한 경우 유인 및 타협 효과가 발생하여 PB의 선택확률이 높아짐을 발견하였다. 구체적으로 실험 1에서는 NB와 PB의 특성상 경쟁대안과 표적대안의 선호도와 선택확률의 차이가 많은 경우에도 유인브랜드 진입 시 표적대안인 PB의 선택확률 변화를 확인하였다. 실험2에서는 경쟁사 PB를 열등한 대안에 위치시킬 때도 유인효과가 발생하여 자사 PB의 선택확률이 증가한다는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 연구결과에 대한 전략적 시사점과 연구의 한계 및 향후 방향을 제시하였다.
