Abstract

Supply chain management is one of the key research topics today, and it is also a bridge connecting the world. At present, most of the relevant research focuses on the pricing and decision-making of suppliers, and there are few articles on the supply chain from the perspective of consumers. Therefore, this paper studies the determinants of shopping patterns under the dual-channel supply chain. According to the grounded theory, interview the respondents, analyze, code and classify the original data, extract the main and sub-categories, and build a theoretical system. Using the grounded theory method, the extracted main categories are taken as important influencing factors. Then, through a questionnaire survey and analytic hierarchy process, the weight of each influencing factor is obtained. Finally, it is concluded that shopping experience, price factors, logistics factors, customer service, product quality and information access have a significant impact on consumers’ choice of shopping methods, among which product quality and price factors are the most considered by consumers, and retailers should put forward corresponding suggestions and improvements for the above factors.
