본 연구는 외식프랜차이즈 본부의 지원서비스가 가맹점의 경영성과와 만족도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 분석하여 외식프랜차이즈 본부의 성공적인 사업운영 및 프랜차이즈산업 발전에 중요한 시사점을 제공하는 것이 목적이다. 가설을 검증한 결과는 첫째, 가맹본부의 지원서비스에 대해서 가맹점특성에 따라 차이가 있는지에 대해서는 슈퍼바이저 운영에만 점포의 총 면적에 따라서 유의한 차이가 나타났으며, 경영성과와 만족도에 대해서는 의미 있는 관련성이 적은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 지원서비스가 경영성과에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 슈퍼바이저운영, 마케팅지원, 신 메뉴개발 모두 경영성과에 통계적으로 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 파악되었다. 셋째, 가맹본부의 지원서비스가 가맹점만족에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 슈퍼바이저운영, 마케팅지원, 신 메뉴개발 모두 가맹점만족에 통계적으로 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 파악되었다. 따라서 가맹점 매출증대를 위한 체계적인 매장관리 및 운영지원, 문제점 체크, 보완사항 등을 접수하여 수시로 반영하고, 철저한 매뉴얼 관리를 통해 매장효율성 증대를 지원할 수 있는 슈퍼바이저시스템이 필요하다. 또한 변화하는 경영환경과 고객의 니즈와 욕구를 파악하여 시장점유율과 잠재고객을 확보하여 가맹점 매출증대에 노력해야 하며, 브랜드이미지 확대를 위해 신문, 방송, 라디오, 온라인 등 대중매체를 이용한 홍보나 광고를 통해 직·간접적으로 가맹점에 도움이 될 수 있도록 본사는 지속적이고 차별화된 다양한 마케팅활동을 지원해야 한다. 또한 가맹본부는 객 단가, 고객 층, 경쟁점포 등 사전분석을 통해 고객에게 제공 할 아이템, 식자재의 시장조건, 조리방식, 서비스방식, 판매가격, 변화하는 트렌드, 소비동향과 기호, 계절적인 요인 등을 고려한 메뉴개발을 통해 가맹점의 지속적인 영업활동과 수익 창출에 기여할 수 있도록 지원해야 한다. 가맹점들의 지속적인 이익실현은 프랜차이즈 사업의 최대 관건이며, 가맹점에 대한 계속적인 지원정도가 많을수록 가맹점의 성공가능성은 높아진다.
The common practice of supports provided to the franchisee by the franchiser is mostly focused on such activities as menu development, provision of interior concept and goods supplies while giving less emphasis on detailed operational guidance.
