Chi Minh City are increasingly frequented by young people, especially children who will insist on having easy-going meals treated by their fond parents To better cater to these customers, many stores have managed to localize ingredients as a way to attract more patrons According to Truong Ham Liem, the marketing manager of Lotteria Vietnam, “Lotteria focuses on developing products and services continuously to serve customers, especially fastfood rice” “We mainly target local teenagers, but it is a fact that in past years our main customers were young people and white-collar workers.” Liem

of Jollibee says that the most popular choice at Jollibee’s is rice with chicken, which brings 60% of Jollibee’s total turnover (When fast food is localized, 2009) 123doc

quality of the restaurant but also on how convenience and pleasant of restaurant Customer would like to have a place to enjoy the delicious meal So, as Ryu et all., 2010 mentioned, hedonic value and utilitarian value make customer satisfy Hedonic value explains 12% (h = 0.347) for customer satisfaction Hedonic value has a positive effect on customer satisfaction Customer evaluates that what customer get from fast food restaurant is equal with customer pay or not Customers concern about not only the value of food but also on timing and convenience of restaurant Utilitarian value can explain 11% (u = 0.330) for customer satisfaction Utilitarian value has a positive effect on customer satisfaction With the result 0.803 and 0.645 from SEM text output, it indicates the relationship between customer satisfaction and behavior intention Both are in the same group in EFA analysis Customer satisfaction can explain 64.5% for customer intention As a result, customers not only back to restaurants, which make customer satisfaction but also introduce it to other The study support for research of Han and Ryu (2007) shows high level of customer satisfaction help increase revisit customer and recommendation intention, positive word of mouth The following hypothesis is strongly supported by the study Customer satisfaction has a positive effect on behavioral purchase intention

reliability, assurance, responsibility, empathy, recovery, and tangible The six constructs presents for service quality in fast food restaurant In order to attract customer, restaurant owner need train staff how to supply good service to customer and make customer satisfy with the restaurant The study shows customer need in the industry Food quality is one key element make customer satisfy Customers care about items in menu, healthy, tasty, and fresh food Temperature of food is one element that customer concern, so the restaurant should serve food at appropriate temperature Besides the service quality and food quality, customers would like to choose a place supply good feeling, fun, and pleasant place to enjoy meal Customers not only have meal for full but also for relax Restaurant need to be concern the accommodation, decoration, music The fast food restaurant industry thinks about a convenient place and supply quick and good service for customer The SEM result shows the strong

5.3 LIMITATION: In Vietnam, there is difference in behavioral intention of consumer living in each region (North, Central, and South), so all respondents from the biggest city – Ho Chi Minh City – is not present for all consumers in Vietnam Customers living in each region have their own habit, lifestyle and behavioral so the further study should survey in some more cities The study has not survey in teenagers while teenagers contribute quite high volume for fast food restaurant and they can make decision by themselves The respondents of the study mainly focus on office staffs while a lot of customer of fast food restaurant is teenager For factors service quality, food quality, hedonic value, and utilitarian value explain only 53% for customer satisfaction, so the further research should be find out more factors effect to customer satisfaction When the average income increases day by day, customers is smarter, the customer’s need increases, customers pay attention to more and more factors, not only on four factors as in the study In general, the future research should be survey respondents in other cities and provinces, different age of sample and other environment to get more representative of the study result The future research should focus on more and more factors to increase the explaining for customer satisfaction higher than 53% as in the study 48 123doc
