This study examined and compared the two perspectives of consumers and employees on the perceptions toward visual merchandising (VMD) of fashion brands in a department store. Importance of VMD elements, roles of VMD, evaluations of VMD elements, and brand and store images were measured and compared. The two types of questionnaires were used to collect data from consumers and employees. A total of 327 consumer samples and 317 employee samples were analyzed. The results showed that there was no difference between the two groups in what VMD elements were the most important. While employees perceived of the role of VMD higher than consumers, consumers evaluated two VMD element factors higher than employees and showed higher store image. Such results were not different by brand types. The study implies that the higher VMD perceptions of consumers are desirable to manage VMD from the employees' perspective.

V.M.D는 모든 공간과 환경 및 시각적 자극요인을 다루며 건축물의 외관뿐만 아니라 인테리어, 그래픽 사인물, 윈도우 디스플레이, 레이아웃, 매장내의 집기, 조명, 판매원의 외모 접객 태도까지 포함된다. 좋은 품질과 디자인이 훌륭한 상품을 매장에 진열 했으나 고객이 매장에 방문하지 않는다면 상품 판매는 이뤄지지 않는다. V.M.D는 상품을 고객이 매장 안으로 이끌 수 있게 진열하기 위하여 다양한 연출을 하여 브랜드 이미지를 높이며 지속적으로 고객 유치를 위한 모적을 두었다. 과거 화려하고 고급스런 인테리어를 통하여 디스플레이만 강조하던 개념에서 탈피하여 상품을 논리적이고 체계화된 방식으로 진열하여 소비자에게 구매를 유도하며 정보를 제공하고 매장의 환경을 디자인함으로 고객의 머릿속에 브랜드 이미지를 심어주는 것이다. 본 연구는 매장 내에 설치된 V.M.D소비자 선호도를 분석하여 향후 지속적으로 전개될 통신업계 대리점 디스플레이의 바람직한 매장 V.M.D조건을 제시하고자 한다.
