Abstract

Retail is one of the most vigorous and most important business activities in commerce in Colombia and the world. Large corporations and establishments of high recognition belong to this sector. Qualities of service and customer satisfaction are two key concepts for maintaining sustainable competitive advantage. This study tries to empirically analyze the service quality of a chain of stores in Colombia, specifically in an important retail trade mark in Bogotá, using the quality instrument of the retail service. The obtained results show that the five dimensions suggest in the instrument like physical aspects, reliability, personal interaction, problem solving, and policy, are adequate for the measurement of the quality of the retail trade service in supermarkets and stores. Also, the quality of the retail service is associated with future consumption behavior in terms of customers' intention to visit, buy and recommend stores to others.
