“…In the present sample 157 respondents (38.5%) have stated such shared preferences (in terms of firstchoice). On the other hand this figure indicates that a considerable share of respondents patronise more than one store or format for different shopping occasions (Cummins et al, 2008;Findlay and Sparks, 2008;McGoldrick and Andre, 1997). Various small sized (independent) stores with grocery assortments.…”

“…large supermarkets, hypermarkets and discounters) can be observed (ACNielsen, 2004;Popkowski-Leszczyc and Timmermans, 2001). Driving this shift in behaviour is the increasing use of multiple stores and formats since they offer different opportunities to satisfy bundles of wants and needs depending on the shopping occasion (e.g., Cummins et al, 2008;Findlay and Sparks, 2008;McGoldrick and Andre, 1997;Uncles and Hammond, 1995).…”

Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to identify store format attributes that impact on store format choice when consumers conduct fill-in or major trips to buy groceries. By doing so, we take into consideration that consumers patronise multiple (store-based) formats depending on the shopping situation operationalised by the type of shopping trip.Design/methodology/approach: The paper adopts the conceptual framework of random utility theory via application of a multinomial logit modelling framework. The analysis is based on a survey of 408 consumers representing households in a clearly defined central European retail area. Findings:The results reveal a considerable moderating effect of the shopping situation on the relationship between perceived store format attributes and store format choice.Consumers' utilities are significantly higher for discount stores and hypermarkets when conducting major trips. To the contrary, supermarkets are preferred for fill-in trips in the focused retail market. Merchandise-related attributes of store formats have a higher impact on the utility formation regarding major-trips, whereas service-and convenience-related attributes do so regarding fill-in trips. Research limitations:The findings can only be generalised to retail markets having similar characteristics like the one under study. It is highly concentrated, contains considerable share of small size retail stores, it is urban and has clear cut boundaries due to its geographical location.Originality/value: This paper considers the fact that consumers patronise multiple store formats and investigates the moderating effect of the shopping situation -operationalised by different types of shopping trips -on store format choice.

“…Unlike other theories which focus on social structures as the key determinant of food consumption, behavioral economics emphasizes the systematic discrepancies made by all consumers regardless of economic stature due to the presence of subliminal external cues (Just 2006). One example of this error formation in behavioral tendencies is that people forgo available optimal food choices (Just 2006;Cummins et al 2008Cummins et al , 2014.…”

Theoretical issues in the ‘food desert’ debate and ways forward

2015

Food is essential to life-yet the spatial and economic configuration of the conventional food system does not meet nutritional needs and exacerbates issues of food insecurity. Relevant options for policy change have been explored in light of evaluations of geographic disparities in food access, but the dominant 'food desert' discourse often focuses uncritically on insufficient conceptions of access. Understanding the complexity of food deserts is important for moving into meaningful policy action. We present a theoretical position to inspire future empirical research. The ecological model recognizes both endogenous and built environment factors in shaping health. Interventions in the food environment, however, often concentrate exclusively on structural determinants of health (e.g. retail-based initiatives). Yet retail-based interventions are difficult to implement due to governance systems which limit the ability of government bodies to influence private retail development. As well, recognizing the complexity of debates over the influence of structure and agency, we apply structuration theory to food deserts. Behavioral economics further informs both structural and behavioral determinants of health.This approach sidesteps the issue of victim-blaming, as all consumers are viewed as 'predictably irrational' in decision-making. In combining these theories, we challenge methodological and theoretical assumptions by showing the complexity of food desert interventions. Policy recommendations focus on behavioral determinants of health and the opportunities for empowerment through local food systems. These recommendations recognize the limits of translating research into policy and in devising effective food based interventions, and are sensitive to social, economic, and political constraints uncovered throughout the paper.

“…In reality, only some authors have directly dealt with retail own brands by concentrating on consumer loyalty Sparks and other researchers also investigated store-switching behaviors (Cummins et al, 2008;. According to the findings from their study, store location and lower prices were the most important reasons for keeping consumers, but nowadays consumers switched to other stores and maintain their loyalty by concerning fresh produce offer and product range .…”

The research topic aims to review the relationship between retail brand knowledge and loyalty, as well as the relationship for both key components (i.e., brand awareness and brand image) in retail brand knowledge in Taiwan by applying Keller's brand knowledge model. The research questions were: H1: retail brand awareness has a positive effect on retail brand image; H2: retail brand awareness has a positive effect on consumers' retail brand loyalty; and H3: retail brand image has a positive effect on consumers' retail brand loyalty. A questionnaire survey was conducted amongst hypermarket customers of the three major retail brands: Carrefour, RT Mart, and Costco, comprising 465 participants in Taiwan using the convenience sampling method. Interviews were randomly conducted in front of the stores themselves and of the total of 465 responses, 51 were discarded due to missing values leaving a total of 414 analysed. The sample comprised males 51% and females 49% with the majority of respondents under 35. The results of this study indicated that retail brand awareness and retail brand image both have a positive effect on consumer retail brand loyalty. That is to say, retail brand knowledge has a positive effect on consumer retail brand loyalty.
