Purpose - Previous studies about corporate image generally explore how corporate image affects a company's effectiveness from the consumer view. However this study attempts to explore the impacts of corporate image (reliability, friendly, corporate social responsibility, and innovation) on employees' altruistic behaviors in the franchise industry context. This study also examine whether organizational trust and affective commitment play a mediating role in the relationship between corporate image and employees' altruistic behaviors. The authors developed several hypotheses to achieve these purposes. Research design, data, and methodology - The data were collected from employees in food-service franchise companies located in Seoul, Korea. Among a total of 363 questionnaires distributed, 294(response rate of 81%) questionnaires were returned. After excluding 18 invalid respondent questionnaires, 276 valid questionnaires(response rate of 76%) were coded and analyzed using frequency, confirmatory factor analysis, correlations analysis, and structural equation modeling with SPSS 21 and SmartPLS 3.0. Result - The findings of the study are as follows: First, friendly, CSR, and innovation had positive effects on organizational trust, but reliability did not have a significant effect on organizational trust. Second, reliability and friendly of corporate image had positive effects on affective commitment, but CSR and innovation did have a significant effect on affective commitment. Third, organizational trust and affective commitment had positive effects on employees' altruistic behaviors. Conclusions - The aim of this study is to investigate the franchise corporate image as a significant influencing factor of employees' altruistic behaviors. The data were collected from only employees from franchising companies. The findings might vary from position to position. Future studies need to collect and compare data from managers. Future studies need to consider other variables that affect employees' altruistic behaviors. For example, leadership and market orientation might influence employees' attitude and behaviors. Also, future research should include other variables and it may have limitations in sample representative because of sampling franchise corporate in Seoul. Future studies will include franchise corporate all over the country. Future studies can also consider other variables (e.g., job performance and turnover intentions) to measure employee performance at the level of individuals and identify the impact of employee performance on business performance at the level of corporate.

한국프랜차이즈산업은 1970년대 도입된 이후, 외식업, 도·소매업, 서비스업 등 광범위한 영역에 국민생활과 밀접한 지식기반서비스산업으로 고성장을 지속하고 있다. 이제 국내 프랜차이즈산업은 양적성장에서 질적 성장으로의 전환을 통한 새로운 도약을 준비해야 할 시기이다. 무엇보다도 중요한 것은 가맹본부와 가맹점 사업자 간의 신뢰구축을 위한 가맹본부와 가맹점사업자의 노력과 실천이다(Stanworth & Kaufmana, 1995). 가맹본부와 가맹점사업자간의 우호적이고 신뢰할 수 있는 관계(Relationship)야 말로 프랜차이즈에 대한 불신을 해소하고 건강한 프랜차이즈시스템을 유지할 수 있는 근간이기도 하다. 가맹사업을 하고자 하는 가맹본부는 프랜차이즈산업의 지속적인 성장과 발전을 위해서 가맹점창업의 성공에 많은 영향을 미치는 항목이 무엇인지를 파악해야 한다. 따라서, 가맹점 사업성과의 만족도와 가맹점 사업성공·실패에 미치는 가맹점의 선택속성이 무엇인지를 파악하고 업종별로 차이가 있다는 것을 밝히려는 연구의 목적이 있다. 본 연구는 가맹사업을 하고 있는 가맹본부나 예비 가맹본부 창업자들이 가맹점 모집뿐만 아니라 가맹점 지원시스템 구축력, 브랜드력, 가맹점의 상권 경쟁력, 교육·훈련 프로그램 수준, 가맹점사업자의 금융비용, 가맹점본부와 가맹점사업자와의 파트너쉽, 마케팅 믹스 관리능력(제품, 가격조건, 물류 및 배송서비스, 프로모션, 슈퍼바이징과 슈퍼바이저, 업무절차·과정, 물리적 증거)에 투자와 활동을 집중해야 가맹점의 성공가능성이 높아진다는 것을 시사하고 있다. 가맹점 예비창업자들이 우수한 가맹본부를 선택하기 위해 가장 크게 고려하는 사항은 가맹본부의 특성이다. 특히 가맹점에 대한 가맹본부의 지원은 가맹점의 사업성과와 만족도를 높이고 결과적으로 적극적인 추천이나 재 계약률을 높일 수 있다.

Global restaurant franchises are becoming more and more popular in China, Japan, and South Korea. Understanding target customers' needs for restaurant franchises is considered one of the most important factors for their business success. In this study, four domains-food-related domain (FRD), interior-related domain (IRD), staff-related domain (SRD), and convenience-related domain (CRD)-and 24 elements were classified. A survey with 450 respondents in the three capital cities (Beijing, Tokyo, and Seoul) was then conducted to examine the effect of the factors influencing customer satisfaction. After statistical analysis, thirteen main elements were found as factors influencing customer satisfaction. The analysis result showed that the food-related domain (FRD) was the most important in Beijing. The interior-related domain (IRD) and the convenience-related domain (CRD) were considered the most important in Tokyo and Seoul. Some cultural differences in customer satisfaction were also found.

Purpose - Franchise industries are significant both socially and economically. However, with increasing interest, there are manifold problems. It is necessary to seek measures for mature operation constantly despite unprepared franchisors, negative perceptions of the media and society toward franchise, and rapid changes in business start-up trends and propensity to consume that make business start-ups difficult. The paper aims to explain the effects of relational commitment and performance on the franchisor's management characteristics and justice in the food service franchise system. Research design, data, and methodology - This is an exploratory survey examining franchising in Korea. Based on a literature synthesis, we extract five constructs: managerial characteristics, support, fairness, trust, and satisfaction. We hypothesize that these factors influence the trust, satisfaction, and performance of franchisees. To examine these hypotheses empirically, we conducted a survey on the database of the Franchising Council of Korea. The study employs data from May to September 2014. In total, 135 completed questionnaires were received, of which 128 were usable. The data was analyzed with SPSS/PC 22.0. First, to test unidimensionality and nomological validity of the measures of each construct, we employed a scale refinement procedure. The result of a reliability test with Cronbach's α and factor analysis warranted unidimensionality of the measures for each construct. In addition, nomological validity of the measures was warranted from the result of the correlation and regression analysis. By analyzing the data, we can confirm most hypotheses. Results - Frist, franchisor characteristics have a positive effect on trust and satisfaction. Second, franchisor fairness has an effect on trust and satisfaction. Third, franchisor support has an effect on satisfaction. Further, the franchisee trust has an effect on satisfaction. Fourth, the satisfaction of a franchisee with a franchisor affects the performance of a franchisee. Finally, there is a possibility that not only franchisee performance but also increasing the credibility and improving the image of the franchisor through communication between franchisor and franchisee can improve franchisees' performance and satisfaction by motivating the franchisee for sustainable growth. Franchisers should endeavor for franchisees to obtain stable revenue with continuous and practical support. They should recognize that they can expand their business by supporting their franchisees. Franchisors should not only instantly respond to franchisees' troubles with interactive communications but also raise the ability of supervisors for better support. Franchisors should share their visions and goals with their franchisees and provide systematic and continuous support based on trust and clear company management. Franchisees should understand franchisors' position as well as participate in establishing the basic franchise system. Contributions - The paper contributes to understanding franchising in Korea. It offers insights and assistance to franchisors hoping to start franchises. This paper explores measurement issues related to franchisee performance by estimating its determinant factors (managerial characteristics, support, fairness, trust, and satisfaction). This study provides franchisors and practitioners planning to extend their franchising business with some practical knowledge.
