Book Consumer Behaviour in Online Grocery Retailing in Germany

Download or read book Consumer Behaviour in Online Grocery Retailing in Germany written by Yasin Yilmaz and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 1,0, University of Salford, language: English, abstract: Despite widespread popularity in Europe, particularly in the UK and the Netherlands, demand for Online Grocery Retail in Germany, which is economically just as strongly developed, appears to be rather low. This study therefore aims to find out which factors encourage or discourage consumers in Germany to order groceries online. Businesses need to make the online grocery business model transparent and useful from a marketing perspective. The clear advantages of this way of shopping groceries must be communicated. Furthermore, psychological aspects of consumers must be understood and taken into account in the retailers' strategy. Last but not least, importance must be attached to data protection and environmental protection; this message must be conveyed. By providing current insights into consumers' preferences and wishes on their personal grocery shopping behavior, the findings can be used by Businesses and especially Grocery Retailer to shape the grocery shopping of the future. Based on the hypothesis that that there is some degree of resistance to the utilisation of technology which is potentially inhibiting German consumers utilising actively embracing online grocery retail, the Technology Acceptance Model and its extension was chosen as a conceptual framework in order to test this assumption. To test the findings of the Literature Review, 25 semi-structured interviews were conducted in the empirical part of this study. The target group of the interviewees were students aged between 18 - 30, 13 of them female and 12 male. The main findings are that the reasons for the low demand for online grocery retailing in Germany are cultural. German consumers are more likely to trust new trends if they have been on the market and established for a longer period of time. The high density of grocery stores favours the fact that German consumers do not see any real added value in this service and thus no real usefulness. In addition to ease of use and usefulness, demographic aspects must also be taken into account in order to make the online grocery trade successful in Germany. The study focused on a specific age and target group. For practical reasons, the number was limited to 25 interviews. For further research it is recommended to analyze further age and target groups in order to gain further differences in the individual aspects.

Book Online Food Shopping  Consumer perception and retailers market approach  contrasting the markets UK and Germany

Download or read book Online Food Shopping Consumer perception and retailers market approach contrasting the markets UK and Germany written by Marie von Breitenbuch and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2004-12-14 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 61 points (B), Bournemouth University (Business School), course: International Business Administration, language: English, abstract: The research’s aim was to contrast the retailers’ market approach and consumer perception of online food shopping in the markets Germany and UK. The first part of the research project was the review of existing literature to build up knowledge about the history and definition of the Internet and to give a market overview of Germany and the UK. The next areas investigated within the literature review were consumers’ online shopping behaviour and the food retail market. The last part was concerned with specific companies from both countries and their market approach. Research questions developed in the literature review were concerned with the food shopping behaviour and the perception of online food shopping. Additional questions were if payment security has an influence on online shopping and what other market sectors are of interest. The first part of the survey collecting quantitative data was carried out within a sample of 100 food shoppers from the UK and 100 from Germany. Questionnaires were distributed using the snowball sampling method – a method where each respondent passes the questionnaire to a number of further contacts. Interviews built the second survey part where two participants from each country were questioned in-depth about their food shopping behaviour and perceptions. The interviews backed findings from the questionnaire survey and gave further information. Quantitative data was gained and analysed by using the program SPSS. SPSS is a tool that provides the possibility to run statistical correlations between variables and provides graphical outputs to illustrate the findings. The findings show great differences in consumer perception and retailers’ market approach between Germany and the UK. While in the UK online food shopping is popular with consumers and some retailers found a way of establishing themselves in this market, German companies do not offer the service nationwide and consumers seem to have limited interest. Main reasons identified in the research lie in the differences within the economical markets and culture of the countries. The outlook in the future shows an ongoing increase in online food shopping in the UK but less activities in Germany.

This book was released on 2010-01-13 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 2,7, University of Duisburg-Essen, language: English, abstract: “A profound shift in the economy is underway - the industrial age economy is rapidly giving way to the Internet age economy.“1 Four years after the New Economy crash the Internet Economy is booming and hopes that mobile offers will further increase the speed.2 With the number of online sales for goods and services increasing every day3, online shopping - with sales growth rates outpacing traditional retailing purchases - has become one of the fastest growing forms of shopping4. The statement above explains the reason why the term Electronic Commerce has kept both business research and business practice as occupied as barely any other term, in the last years.5 Warren D. Raisch writes about this shift in the economy that “the global development and acceptance of the Internet as the new standard for communication and commerce provides us with a powerful new global Internet-based E-Business network (...).“6 Realizing that we live in a global marketplace with international trade7 additionally pushed by the Internet, companies face a stronger competition and the need to create more value for customers than their competitors. In this context, it is important for companies to realize that, through the Internet, there is a power shift to the customer. Furthermore, as customers will demand and tolerate only delightening buying experiences, it is a necessity to capture and analyze information about buying behavior in the 21st century business.8 When talking about E-Commerce, which is a part of Electronic Business (E-Business), describing the sale of goods and services via the Internet targeting a mass market9, the following two areas have to be differentiated: Business-to-Cus- tomer (B2C) E-Commerce, meaning the settlement of buying contracts between a commercial seller and an end-consumer via electronic media, and Business-to-Business (B2B) E-Commerce, describing the same action but between two commercial business partners. 10 11 In this paper, the focus lies on B2C E-Commerce as this is the most interesting area regarding marketing.12 13 Therefore, to better understand the online purchase behavior of private consumers, in the frame of the following analysis the influencing factors of shopping over the Internet are examined. Since determining the factors influencing online shopping behavior also discovers those factors hindering the usage of the Internet as a shopping platform, suggestions to improve and adjust online offers appropriately can be made.14

Book Impact of Covid 19 on German Consumer Behavior  Elaboration Regarding a Sustained Change of Online Shopping

Download or read book Impact of Covid 19 on German Consumer Behavior Elaboration Regarding a Sustained Change of Online Shopping written by Michel Brandes and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, Hamburg School of Business Administration gGmbH, language: English, abstract: The goal of this study was to elaborate the differences between COVID-19 induced and a potentially restriction free consumer behavior in 2024 regarding a sustained change of online shopping and the usage of digital services. Two different scenarios were developed (I) asking participants about their behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic and (II) asking participants about their behavior in a pandemic and restriction free environment in 2024. In order to elaborate potential effects, a research model was derived based on a conceptual framework investigating the long-term adherence of behavioral changes combined with item relationships regarding the sustained usage of services. The data was derived through online questionnaires. Afterwards, the conducted data was operationalized and elaborated through multiple (M)ANOVA. The key findings were that the satisfaction levels for both online shopping as well as for the digital services significantly decreased in scenario II. According to the research model this allows the conclusion that a sustained usage is negatively affected. Therefore, the observed acceleration of online shopping could potentially slow down and return to average growth levels. The reduction of satisfaction levels was supported by a correlation reduction of the frequency of use and money spent items which confirmed the reduction of online shopping as well as the usage of digital services. For the retail and e-commerce industry the findings allow strategic implications to prepare for the post pandemic consumer behavior. Consumers will potentially carry their positive experiences with them and translate those into future expectations towards retail and e-commerce. To mention are that due to the decreased satisfaction levels the traditional stationary retail store remains relevant and therefore should be strategically emphasized within retailer’s channel strategy.

Book Consumer Behavior on Online Grocery Shopping Adoption  A Quantitative Analysis in the Context of the COVID 19 Pandemic  Contrasting the Markets of Peru and Germany

Download or read book Consumer Behavior on Online Grocery Shopping Adoption A Quantitative Analysis in the Context of the COVID 19 Pandemic Contrasting the Markets of Peru and Germany written by José Alonso Pisfil Manchego and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2023-03-13 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Business economics - Market research, grade: 1,3, University of applied sciences, Munich, language: English, abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic raised the demand for online food shopping in traditional Peru and Germany. This urged an in-depth examination since consumer attitudes in specific cultural contexts had received little attention. Thus, this research aims to ascertain the factors that significantly influence Germans' and Peruvians' intention to use online grocery shopping, as well as to identify significant differences between the two countries. Two particular research topics serve as the framework for this study, which are as follows: Are there significant differences in the usage of online grocery shopping between Germans and Peruvians during the COVID-19 pandemic? What factors significantly influence Germans and Peruvians' online grocery shopping usage during the COVID-19 pandemic? As indicated by both research questions, this study's primary emphasis is on online grocery shopping behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic that peaked one year ago, in the year 2020, yet has persisted worldwide. Therefore, this study focuses only on empirical data from the COVID-19 outbreak since online grocery shopping in both nations was not a significant event before the pandemic. Furthermore, there was no previous scientific research on online grocery shopping’s behavior in Peruvian literature, preventing comparison between the two countries. Given that the pandemic's breakout aided in the partial adoption of online grocery shopping in both nations, the researcher judged it appropriate to frame both research questions exclusively in terms of the COVID-19 pandemic to capture better the influence of the digital transition that was experienced in 2020.

Book The Expectations Of Targeted Customer Segments Towards Food Logistics Services For Online Grocery Shopping  An Empirical Analysis with Recommendations for Action

Download or read book The Expectations Of Targeted Customer Segments Towards Food Logistics Services For Online Grocery Shopping An Empirical Analysis with Recommendations for Action written by Sebastian Neumann and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2020-09-24 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, grade: 1,5, Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: This paper is about the expectations of targeted customer segments towards food-logistics-services for online grocery shopping. In recent years, the food retail sector in Germany entered the market with a new business model, which can be called "online-grocery-shopping". Unlike in other European countries, this business model is still at its beginning and encounters some challenges to develop and scoop its potential entirely. The research status mostly seems to consider just the trader, but little to no emphasis is on the transport service provider. Especially the processes of them must ensure that sensitive groceries are handled and delivered with maximum care until the goods reach the final customer. Also, the German population is a sophisticated customer base, due to their high expectations regarding quality and service. Furthermore, the younger people are represented by high internet affinity, and they count as one of the present and future purchasing powers. This thesis utilizes a questionnaire to study 18-35-year old people regarding their expectations towards the transportation of groceries to contribute to the development of this business model. An assessment by the participants helps to identify the essential expectations. Since Germans are tough customers, an ordinal logistic regression contributes to examine the identified expectations further. This reveals which properties of the customer, whether these are of demographic or fundamental nature, are affecting the expectations. Further, cross-pair comparisons of these properties are executed to crosscheck, how exactly is a property affecting an expectation. After this, based on the results, recommendations for action are stated as specific as possible to help the transport service provider compensate the identified expectations.

Book E Food and the Online Grocery Business

Download or read book E Food and the Online Grocery Business written by Stefanie Schulz and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2005-05-08 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 1,3, Furtwangen University, language: English, abstract: Groceries are different from many other products, such as music and books that are commonly purchased online. Many grocery products are perishable and therefore time-sensitive in terms of their delivery needs. In addition, groceries are a replacement product, for example, the same basket of products is more-or-less purchased on a regular basis. Finally, groceries are high-touch items, meaning that consumers like to inspect the quality of items they are purchasing. Online grocery shopping still is a growing and potent distribution channel that uses direct access methods to allow consumers to shop quickly and take delivery of grocery products without ever leaving their homes, with the computer as the primary method of communication. This environment provides the opportunity to compare and select grocery products in unique and relevant ways in an information-rich environment. Consumers are embracing this online channel as a means of simplifying their lives and saving time. For researchers, online grocery shopping provides new research applications made possible from the unique ability to link longitudinal transactional data and survey-based attitudinal data at the individual household level. This means fast consumer feedback from a valuable sample, in a controlled environment, as well as the ability to monitor behaviour over time. Also, this environment can be a more efficient and cost-effective means of data collection and analysis than traditional survey research, in some instances.

Book The role of customer insights within the German retail context  How can grocery discounters  performance be improved in the German retailer industry

Download or read book The role of customer insights within the German retail context How can grocery discounters performance be improved in the German retailer industry written by Martin Roumenov Karakostov and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2016-09-28 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 1.8, University of Bremen, course: 4th, language: English, abstract: The grocery retail sector is in overall terms a highly competitive sector throughout the world and the complexity of numerous agents driving shoppers toward an election or another has been extensively researched. As a result of such fierce competition, discounters arose to provide value conscious shoppers with good quality products at a lower price. However, private label penetration depends on an array of factors depending largely on the country, the retailer and the product category. This study provides the reader with a detailed literature review on how do customers insights affect purchasing patterns and furthermore examines the tools available to carry out suitable strategies within the German context from a discounter’s viewpoint focusing especially on private labels since it is considered the foremost differentiation strength although a review on the four P’s of Marketing-Mix besides determinants as product categorisation, breadth and depth of assortment, brand name and store atmosphere are analysed thoroughly. Subsequently to the revision of the specific literature, a PESTEL analysis, a price positioning-matrix and a SWOT analysis have been carried out for the purpose of better comprehending the German retail context. Lastly, an empirical research has been conducted to confirm the findings through abductive reasoning since the sample survey is limited to one hundred and twenty respondents. The research concludes that the main drivers to attract shoppers to the store were distance, price, quality and breadth of assortment. Moreover, in-store other variables may entice the shopper to increase its per capita expenditure as a lower music tempo, or less crowded atmosphere as the shopper notices more promotions although given the extensive amount of variables playing a role the abstract section provides only a partial understanding of how branding and store image should be managed.
