Abstract

The purpose of this study was to provide useful information for establishing efficient marketing direction by investigating the performance (satisfaction) and importance for the quality of Korean traditional commercial beverages. The subjects were 320 participants (130 males and 190 females) in Daegu and Kyungpook. The importance and satisfaction score of Korean traditional commercial beverages were measured on a five-point Likert scale. The results are summarized as follows. The overall satisfaction score on Korean traditional commercial beverages was 2.96 points. The beverages with the highest satisfaction scores were 'green tea' (3.48 points) 'shickhae' (3.35 points) and 'rice tea' (3.34 points) whereas 'ppongip tea' (2.58 points) 'gugija tea' (2.63 points) and 'gukhwa tea' (2.64 points) scored lowly. From the analysis of the difference between importance and performance of Korean traditional commercial beverages, importance (3.11 points) was rated much higher than performance (3.66 points). In the IPA result, it was important to continuously maintain 'taste', 'hygiene', 'freshness', 'period of circulation', 'wrapping condition' etc. Some items such as 'nutrition', 'safety', 'health', and 'ingredient' did not need intensive care and operation.
