Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the regional system of car rental offices by investigating the location of headquarter and branch offices. Spatial characteristics of car rental industries attempts to emerge from local markets. Car rental industries try to reconstruct their organizations by establishing corporation and limited partnership companies. Also, in various reasons, they divided space extensively by placing business offices in the areas within and out of headquarter. The formation of network by offering short period car rental services between offices, to meet the increasing demand of leisure activities etc., causes the economies of scale.

승용 자동차 임대업의 본사와 영업소의 배치를 통하여 사무소의 지역적 체계를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 승용 자동차 임대업의 공간적 특성은 서비스 생산자가 국지적 시장을 벗어나기 위하여 주식회사, 합자회사 등을 설립하여 기업조직의 재구조화를 도모함으로 다양한 요인에 의해 본사가 있는 지역 내 및 지역 외 특정지역에 영업소를 배치시켜 광범위한 공간적 분업을 하고 있다. 이러한 공간분업은 최근 여가활동의 증가 등으로 수요증대에 따른 사무소간의 승용 자동차의 단기간 제공 등에 의한 네트워크의 형성이 규모의 경제를 발생시키고 있다.
