농가로부터 판매처까지의 유통단계에서 변화하는 온도 조건에 노출된 생표고버섯의 저장성향상을 확보하기 위해 개별포장과 2차 포장을 결합시킨 마스터 포장 시스템을 적용하였다. 온도가 저온으로 유지되는 수송과 저장 단계에서는 1차와 2차 포장의 결합 형태로 유통되고, 온도가 높은 판매단계에서는 외부 2차 포장을 해체한 후 1차 포장 조건에서 적절한 가스농도를 확보할 수 있는 개념으로 설계하고, 2차 마스터 포장 내에는 $Ca(OH)_2$의 이산화탄소 흡수제를 포함시켰다. 유통흐름 중에서 포장의 온습도와 기체조성을 측정하고, 마지막 단계인 판매처에서 포장을 개봉하여 버섯의 품질을 측정하였다. 공기조성을 유지하는 관행적인 통기성 천공 포장을 대조구로 함께 유통흐름을 거치게 하여 저장 후 품질을 비교하였다. 초기의 수송 및 저장 단계에서 적절한 저온조건이 유지되지 못한 것으로 나타났으나, 유통의 전체 과정에서 버섯 주위에 산소 농도 0.4~4.2%, 이산화탄소 농도 0.7~1.7%로 품질보존에 도움이 되는 기체조성이 유지되었다. 포장 전 예건처리가 버섯의 품질보존에 효과가 있는 반면에, 마스터 포장 시스템의 긍정적 효과는 비예건 버섯에 뚜렷이 나타났다. 보다 효과적인 버섯 품질보존을 위해서 예건 처리 및 온도관리와 함께 조화된 마스터 포장 시스템의 설계가 추가적으로 이루지고 검토될 필요가 있는 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose - This study aims to seek various plans to maintain the advancement of the overseas and domestic employment scenario through a case analysis of the Japanese industry, which maintains domestic employment while promoting the overseas advancement of companies despite having a similar industrial structure as Korea. The study further intends to derive insightful implications for Japanese manufacturing companies and government policies. Research design, data, and methodology - We selected four companies from the Japanese manufacturing industry. Being companies that were successful in increasing the domestic employment scenario while advancing in overseas markets. We utilized several secondary data sources including Japanese newspapers and report literature. Results - Previous studies have shown a negative relationship between Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) or offshoring and domestic employment. However, our results showed this relationship with respect to the Japanese manufacturing industry as follows: 1. FDI for developing overseas markets does not decrease domestic production. If Japanese companies change their strategy from exports to overseas production, there will be a consequent decrease in domestic employment of Multinational Enterprises (MNEs). However, the local production that plans the sales expansion of a foreign market does not substitute domestic production. 2. Several case studies illustrate that, as the production of final goods is expanded in foreign countries, there is a corresponding increase in the export of intermediary goods from Japan. In this case, if the production process of Japanese companies is promoted in foreign markets, the amount of exported material and parts from Japan will consequently increase. 3. It is difficult to consider that the establishment of subsidiary companies in foreign countries by manufacturing companies for wholesale, retail, and services decreases domestic employment. This is because the international development of these industries needs expatriates, expatriate training organizations, and research and development (R&D) activities. 4. When there is overseas demand, the growth of local management activities is expected to increase the work of the overseas business department in the head office in Japan, if competitiveness can be secured for better localization and management speed. 5. The conversion of the domestic manufacturing industry into high value-added production is necessary. The relocation of domestic production to foreign markets decreases domestic employment. To prevent this, the upgradation of domestic production bases, including high value-added production, and R&D capability need to be strengthened. Technology-based companies must develop new technology, patents, processes, and so forth, which require extensive human resources for R&D. Conclusions - Domestic medium-sized companies that are capable of consistently supplying high value-added products should be actively encouraged to deploy into and develop overseas markets. Further, this paper considers the necessity of a guidance policy that provides suggestions for overseas deployment, by the initiation of the government, to companies that cannot do so due to the lack of foreign experience or decisions by the CEO, despite having the relevant capability and technologies to supply high value-added products.

Purpose - The present study examines the effect of service employees' experienced customer incivility through their emotional exhaustion. We identified service employees' emotion regulation ability as a boundary condition (i.e., moderating variable) that decreased the positive relationship between service employees' experienced customer incivility and their emotional exhaustion. Furthermore, we also investigated the negative relationship between service employees' experienced customer incivility and their service performance via emotional exhaustion. Research design, data, and methodology - Drawing on AET (affective event theory) and COR (conservation of resources) theory, we developed three research hypotheses (i.e., mediation, moderation, and moderated mediation). Online panel survey data from 552 frontline employees at several service organizations (e.g., department stores, retail stores, hotels, restaurants, airlines, banking, insurance company, and etc) in South Korea were examined. To assess two types of validity (i.e., convergent and discriminant validity) and reliability of measurement model, we employed the CFA (confirmatory factor analysis) using M-plus 8.2 software. Internal consistency also was tested by Cronbach' α. In addition, we employed the SPSS PROCESS MACRO 2.16, which was recommended by Hayes (2013, 2015), to estimate mediation, moderation, and moderated mediation effects. Results - As predicted, the negative relationship between service employees' experienced customer incivility and their service performance was mediated by emotional exhaustion. Furthermore, service employees' emotion regulation ability also played a significant moderating role of the relationship between service employees' experienced customer incivility and emotional exhaustion, such that this relationship was less pronounced when service employees had a high level of their emotion regulation ability than when thir emotion regulation ability was low. Service employees' emotion regulation ability further moderated this mediation effect of service employees' experienced customer incivility on service performance through emotional exhaustion. These findings have theoretical implications for employees' experienced customer incivility and emotion regulation ability research and provide managerial implications for practitioners. Conclusions - This study empirically elaborated the previous model of service employees' experienced customer incivility and personal resource (e.g., emotion regulation ability) literature by presenting the findings that service employees' experienced customer incivility influences their service performance via emotional exhaustion and that emotion regulation ability effectively reduces this negative effect.

PB제품은 NB제품에 비해 가격이 저렴하다는 이유 때문에 주로 경제성 추구성향이 강한 소비자들이 선호하는 것으로 인식되어 왔다. 그러나 최근에는 고가의 프리미엄급 PB제품도 인기리에 판매되고 있으며, 전반적으로 PB제품의 매출이 급성장하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 PB제품의 선호도에 영향을 미치는 요인이 과연 무엇인가를 알아보기 위해 첫째, PB제품에 대한 소비자들의 품질지각에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 알아보고, 둘째, PB제품의 지각적 품질과 소비자의 금전효용가치가 PB제품 구매에 대한 소비자의 지각적 가치에 어떤 영향을 미치는가를 알아보고자 하며, 마지막으로 PB제품에 대한 소비자들의 선호도에 영향을 주는 요인들을 확인한 후 PB에 대한 마케팅 전략적 시사점을 제시 하려는데 연구의 목적이 있다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약해보면, PB에 대한 지식과 정보가 풍부하고, PB제품을 사용해 본 후 만족한 경험이 있는 소비자는 PB제품의 품질을 긍정적으로 지각하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 그러나 유통업체의 점포이미지는 PB제품의 품질지각에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다. 한편 PB제품의 지각적 품질과 소비자의 금전효용가치는 모푸 PB제품구매의 지각적 가치에 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수임을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 PB제품의 지각적 품질이 금전효용가치보다 PB제품구매의 지각적 가치에 더 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. PB제품 선호도에는 동일 점포에 입점되어 있는 NB제품의 경쟁력(부의 영향), PB제품 경험 후 태도, PB제품의 지각적 품질, 그리고 PB제품구매의 지각적 가치가 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 그러나 소비자의 금전효용가치는 PB제품의 선호도와는 직접적인 관계가 없는 것으로 나타났으며, PB제품구매의 지각적 가치가 PB제품 선호도에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구결과는 경제성을 추구하는 소비자라 하더라도 PB제품의 지각적 품질수준 여하에 따라 PB제품의 판매가치가 크다고 지각될 때에만 PB제품을 선호하는 것으로 풀이할 수 있다. 본 연구는 최근에 큰 관심의 대상이 되고 있는 PH의 연구자와 유통업계 실무자들에게 유익한 전략적 시사점을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

백화점은 우리나라 유통시장에서 전통적인 대형 유통업체로 자리를 잡고 있었다. 1997년 우리나라의 외환위기 이후, 백화점은 3사를 중심으로 집중도가 높아지면서 납품업자와의 관계에서 우월적인 지위를 가지게 되었다. 그 중에 하나가 판매수수료이다. 판매수수료란 제조업체를 대신하여 제품 판매에 기여를 한 유통업체가 판매 가격에 일정 부분을 가져가는 것을 의미한다. 즉, 백화점에 입점한 업체들이 제품 판매액의 일정부분을 백화점에 지불하는 것이다. 그런데 납품업체의 입장에서는 이러한 판매수수료가 매우 높다고 인식하고 있다. 그러나 한편에서, 백화점은 납품업체를 대신하여 고객을 모으고 판촉활동을 하여 새로운 부가가치를 창출하는 역할을 하기 때문에 단순히 판매수수료가 높다고 말하는 것은 부당하다고 주장하고 있다. 이러한 상황이 발생한 것은 백화점이 직매입 보다는 수수료 위주의 매장 운영을 보이기 때문이다. 백화점의 수입은 판매수수료에 좌지우지 될 수밖에 없고, 규모화와 백화점 브랜드파워를 통한 거래교섭력 증대로, 납품업체와의 관계에서 판매수수료의 주도권을 높이고 있다. 따라서 이러한 백화점의 판매수수료와 관련된 대응정책으로 백화점의 독과점 구조 심화를 방지해야 하며, 납품업체와 공정한 계약 체결을 할 수 있도록 공정거래위원회의 불공정거래행위에 대한 감시가 강화되어야 할 것이다. 한편으로는, 백화점 업계의 자율적인 상생과 공정거래가 정착되도록 하는 환경조성도 병행되어야 할 것이다.

Purpose - It has been argued that the regulations restricting entry and opening hours of General Super Markets and Super Super Markets have not been as effective as expected. In contrast, the win-win item scheme that appeared recently has the advantage that it could raise the effectiveness of the system in that win-win items are in principle resigned on the basis of bilateral agreements. This study analyzes the win-win item agreement made between Homeplus at Hap-jung and small traditional markets to examine the practical effectiveness of the win-win item scheme. While existing literature studying the regulatory effects have concentrated on the restrictions around store entry or opening hours of large retailers, it can be said that there have been few empirical studies on the effect of win-win items agreement with large retailers. Research design, data, and methodology - Homeplus at Hap-jung made a win-win items agreement with nearby small traditional market traders in 2013. In accordance with this voluntary agreement, Homeplus started by limiting its sales to 15 win-win items. The survey was conducted through one-on-one interviews, April 14 to May 2, 2014, by a professional public opinion research agency. The interviews were targeted at small business retailers in the nearby traditional market. We divided the traditional markets near Homeplus at Hap-jung where the win-win item agreement was achieved into two groups, win-win item agreement markets and non win-win item agreement markets, to compare the performance difference between the two groups. Results - To determine the change in sales of the 15 win-win items, we examined the performance difference between the two groups using two criteria (compared with similar items, and compared to sales volume a year ago). The results show that the individual sales of win-win items in the win-win item agreement markets are more likely to increase than in the non win-win item agreement markets. Total sales volume of individual stores in the agreement markets also showed a more significant increase compared to a year ago than those in non win-win item agreement markets. Conclusions - Contrary to the existing retail regulations that have one-sided and uniform characteristics, it can be pointed out that the win-win item scheme has the effect of increasing the success of the system itself because it is done on the basis of mutual agreement between General Super Markets and traditional markets. The empirical results of this study can be said to support this conjecture. For the successful settlement of a win-win items agreement, the following points should be reviewed. First, it requires a great effort from the selection process of win-win items in order to improve the effectiveness of the agreement. Second, the existing General Super Markets customers should be introduced to the traditional markets or small shops to increase the sales of win-win items. Therefore, voluntary effort is essentially required from the traditional markets to engage customers.

Purpose - This paper attempts to identify the problems and limitations of a market maintenance project conducted according to the 「Special Act for the Development of Traditional Markets and Shopping Street」 and to present a revised direction for the special law and lay the groundwork for market maintenance projects to be promoted smoothly. Research design, data, and methodology - The revised direction for the legislation and the proposal were written based on an investigation of the problems and the legal system, and proposed measures for market maintenance operation and system improvements to derive the improvements needed for market maintenance projects. Results - A market maintenance project has been conducted as a means to reinvigorate traditional markets that are economically depressed, and to revive the local economy. It was largely conducted in the form of reconstruction and redevelopment and represents the interests of landowners and merchants. Thus, it is most likely to contribute to the gradual disappearance of traditional markets. First, as part of a market maintenance project, many companies are building multipurpose buildings or high-rise residential buildings to increase profits. In these high-rise buildings, they can raise rents, which may not be affordable for some existing small businesses. To solve such problems, the large-scale store registration requirement needs to be relaxed or abolished once the market maintenance project is completed. If the large-scale store registration requirement is to be abolished, the term 'large retail store' should be changed in the 「Special Act for the Development of Traditional Markets and Shopping Street」. After registration, the Small and Medium Business Administration should train merchants, offer consultations, and support events, to the extent that the existing traditional market management modernization project permits, and further continue to manage and support its ongoing activities. However, unless large-scale store registration is abolished, adding an exception clause in the special law to relax large-scale store registration criteria, and permitting changes to building use is another option. At the end of a market maintenance project, empty stores should be purchased by the Small and Medium Business Administration, and local government, etc., at the actual construction cost, to utilize them as public rental shopping areas, which in turn may be re-utilized as a temporary market for another market maintenance project. The second problem in market maintenance projects is merchant-protection. Currently, the special law prescribes that a temporary market be created for merchants to conduct business during the rental period of a market maintenance project. Conclusions - In reality, a market maintenance project is conducted usually in big metropolitan cities with 500,000 residents or more. The main building type created under these projects is a multipurpose building. For this reason, it is very difficult to secure a location for a temporary market in the surrounding area of such a project. To solve this problem, this study suggests 'public rental shopping areas' as mentioned above.

Purpose - This study reviews the achievements of a pilot project for the revitalization of a commercial district performed for three years after its establishment in 2011. The project for the revitalization of the commercial district was performed to create a new local community space in connection with the traditional market and nearby districts. Although it was a pilot project, the project for the revitalization of the commercial district has been performed for almost three years. Therefore, this seems a proper time to conduct an interim evaluation of the project. This study aims to review and evaluate how the government support policy is influential for the revitalization of the commercial district. In other words, this research aims to identify what projects positively affected consumers' intention to revisit the downtown commercial area among the commercial district revitalization projects-promotion events, promotion activities, education, merchants cooperation system, IT projects, cultural events, and residents' communication. Research design, data, and methodology - This study designated seven management improvement projects affecting commercial district revitalization based on preceding studies. The survey of the degree of satisfaction on seven management improvement projects was executed targeting consumers who visited the commercial areas. Additionally, visitors' revisit intentions regarding currently visited commercial areas were also investigated. Therefore, revisit intention was set as a dependent variable and the satisfaction degrees of the respective management improvement projects were set as the independent variables. A total of 1,209 consumers were examined in six districts in the country. Result - Multiple regression analysis results showed that cultural events, education, the merchants' cooperation system, and IT projects brought statistically significant effects to the revisit intentions of consumers. In contrast, promotion events, resident communication projects, and promotion activities did not affect the revisit intentions of consumers. Particularly, the residents' communication project did not show significant influence because of consumers' recognition that it is similar to a cultural event. Conclusion - The following implications for the revitalization of business districts in the urban central area are drawn. From a general perspective, the businesses of culture, education, and cooperative system among seven businesses play positive roles regarding the intention to revisit so that the project is required to be promoted periodically through unique performances differentiated for each district, the merchant training reinforced for professionalism, and the expansion of joint events of merchants. Moreover, the sales promotion project and public relations activity are shown to be not influential to the intention to revisit. Therefore, while short-term sales promotion such as one-time gift events are required, sales promotion and public relation activities to induce revisits by mileage savings and accumulated gift presentation to attract long-term customers are required. The IT business is positively influential to the intention of revisit. Therefore, detailed information on the revitalized commercial district should be provided and additional functions such as discount coupons for continuous utilization should be included in the mobile app and the website.

Purpose - This study identifies relationships amongst repurchase intentions, brand equity, and preference by applying VMD of fashion retail stores. The results would help coffee shop owners and coffee makers in devising an appropriate strategy for successfully managing coffee shops. Research design, data, methodology - The VMD model of a coffee shop includes harmony, trend, and attractiveness, while brand equity encompasses brand awareness, perceived quality, and brand image. In this study, the VMD factors of coffee shops, brand equity, and brand preference, are shown as independent variables, while repurchase intention is shown as the dependent variable. The study aims to ascertain the extent of the influence configuration factors of a coffee shop have on brand equity, brand preference, and repurchase intention. Regression analysis was used to verify the mediating effects of brand preference on brand equity and repurchase intention. The measurement items were already deemed as reliable and valid in the previous study, but some modifications were made for the purposes of this study. Questionnaires were distributed to 550 consumers on a national scale, and 517 consumers amongst these were finally used as a sample for analysis using the SPSS 17.0 statistical program. Results - First, amongst the VMD configuration factors of a coffee shop, trend, and attractiveness have a positive impact on brand equity (brand awareness, perceived quality, and brand image). Second, brand equity has a positive effect on brand preference. Third, brand preference has a positive effect on repurchase intention. Fourth, brand preference plays the role of a mediator in measuring the impact of brand awareness and brand image on customers' repurchase intentions. Conclusions - The theoretical implications can be summarized as follows. First, this study proposes a theoretical basis that can be adapted to the VMD configuration factors of a coffee shop by identifying the relationship between brand equity and coffee shops. This study applies the VMD factors to the coffee shops and presents a new research model by examining the relationships amongst VMD components of coffee shops: brand equity, brand preference, and repurchase intention. Second, it clearly establishes the relationship between brand equity and brand preference by identifying the mediating effects of brand preference, given that brand equity has a positive impact on repurchase intention. The practical implications are as follows. First, development of brand equity and management can be important components for coffee shops in determining that the VMD configuration factors of coffee shops have an impact on brand equity. Second, amongst the VMD configuration factors, attractiveness and trend have a positive influence on choosing coffee shops, therefore store atmosphere should be attractively designed, while the menu and interiors should complement each other and be reviewed periodically to conform to the latest trend. Third, VMD configuration factors that are confirmed are not easily changed. Fourth, large franchises and foreign companies have strengths in scale, locations, and brand. Fifth, the different ways of campaigning should be compared to those of large franchises and foreign companies in order to increase brand equity using VMD configuration factors.
