Abstract:Dynamic capabilities are relevant in management and internationalisation strategies of companies and retailers. This paper aims to analyse retailers' dynamic capabilities to understand whether divergences emerge in the cases of international companies versus retailers operating in their own domestic market. Through the application of an analysis model, which adapts the Teece framework to the specific features of retail companies, the study investigates three clusters of dynamic capabilities and measures 22 ind… Show more
“…Data collected from the international retailers based in London, UK was the good choice, due to their ingenuity, adaptability, flexibility and effectuality (Sansone et al , 2021). Through a thoughtful combination and blend of smart technologies, comprehensive data and optimising the supply chain, these retail stores are influencing new shopping experiences (Pantano et al , 2021).…”

“…Considering the high expenditure on PED for a retail store, questions arise as to what advantages consumers will obtain from this asset to enhance their EWB, and it ultimately promotes the brand. This study contributes to developing a broader understanding of consumers’ emotions and the effect on brand (Puccinelli et al , 2009) and identifying the factors which induce positive consumer behaviour and increase engagement with brands (Sansone et al , 2021). Overall, this study advances towards a more comprehensive perspective regarding PED as a medium to improve consumers’ EWB in a store.…”
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of physical environment design (PED) and its antecedents on consumers’ emotional well-being (EWB). Drawing on place identity and emotional theories, the study aims to provide a new perspective to retail store experiences.
Design/methodology/approach
A survey of 800 respondents was conducted in London, out of which 764 responses were constructively used. The data was collected from international retail outlets, and structural equation modelling was used to analyse the data.
Findings
The empirical results show that PED has a positive effect on consumers’ EWB. Among the antecedents, visual identity does not have any significant effect on PED and EWB. In contrast, communication had a significant effect on PED but did not have any effect on EWB, and further, cultural heritage had a positive effect on both PED and EWB. Further, moderator analysis identifies the boundary conditions under which specific theories hold.
Practical implications
The value of this paper lies in its potential to be used for creating the perfect design planning in retail stores. Significant implications for managers and researchers are highlighted.
Originality/value
This paper presents an innovative approach to develop the principles of retail store’s PED to support the EWB of consumers.
