Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently, Private Brand (PB) products which are developed and provided by retailer not by manufacturer (National Brand: NB), have been growing in the world. But PB growth has a variety. PB share is higher in Europe than in America and Asia. The aim of this research is investigation of the reason why PB share is different in these three areas. So I researched consumer buying behavior and PB/NB loyalty structures in UK, US, and Japan from the viewpoint of safety and wealth, Cross-Culture, channel structure, retail store, and company image. Research gave some new findings; (1) There is a relation among product, store, and company, (2) Brand community is necessary for the building brand loyalty, (3) local-oriented products or services are strong point of PB.
