  • Is a High Refund Strategy Always Effective?
    Is a High Refund Strategy Always Effective? Shueh-Chin Ting, Professor, Department of Education, National University of Tainan, Taiwan ABSTRACT Retailers often use a refund strategy to guarantee that their products are the lowest price. However, does a high refund strategy announced by retailers definitively help consumers to believe that their products have the lowest price? Hierarchical moderator regression analysis was used to examine the moderating effect of a retailer’s reputation on the relationship between refund size and the believability of the lowest price. The results indicate that refund size has no direct effect on the believability of the lowest price and the effect is moderated by a retailer’s reputation. For reputable retailers, refund size has a positive influence on the believability of the lowest price. For less reputable retailers, refund size has a negative influence on the believability of the lowest price. Prior studies neglected the importance of a retailer’s reputation in implementing refund strategies. This study has resolved this research gap. Keywords: believability of the lowest price, guarantee strategy, refund size, retailer’s reputation. INTRODUCTION Retailers often use low-price guarantees (LPGs) as a signal to attract consumers and increase sales. Consumers interpret LPGs as signals that a particular retailer is committed to low prices (Borges, and Babin, 2012). Price-matching guarantees (PMGs) are commonly used by retailers as promises to match the lowest price for an item that a customer can find elsewhere (Yuan and Krishna, 2011). Signaling theory has been used to understand the overall effect of a PMG on consumer perceptions (Borges, 2009).

  • Global Vs. Local-The Hungarian Retail Wars
    Journal of Business and Retail Management Research (JBRMR) October 2015 Global Vs. Local-The Hungarian Retail Wars Charles S. Mayer Reza M. Bakhshandeh Central European University, Budapest, Hungary Key Words MNE’s, SME’s, Hungary, FMCG Retailing, Cooperatives, Rivalry Abstract In this paper we explore the impact of the ivasion of large global retailers into the Hungarian FMCG space. As well as giving the historical evolution of the market, we also show a recipe on how the local SME’s can cope with the foreign competition. “If you can’t beat them, at least emulate them well.” 1. Introduction Our research started with a casual observation. There seemed to be too many FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods) stores in Hungary, compared to the population size, and the purchasing power. What was the reason for this proliferation, and what outcomes could be expected from it? Would the winners necessarily be the MNE’s, and the losers the local SME’S? These were the questions that focused our research for this paper. With the opening of the CEE to the West, large multinational retailers moved quickly into the region. This was particularly true for the extended food retailing sector (FMCG’s). Hungary, being very central, and having had good economic relations with the West in the past, was one of the more attractive markets to enter. We will follow the entry of one such multinational, Delhaize (Match), in detail. At the same time, we will note how two independent local chains, CBA and COOP were able to respond to the threat of the invasion of the multinationals.
