Consumers’ awareness about grocery stores sponsorship activities (English)
Abstract [sv]

Denna studie är en del av ett examinerade moment i form av ett examensarbete för två studenter vid Högskolan Dalarna. Där den ena har studerat Detaljhandelsprogrammet och den andra studerat Sport Management. Arbetet sammanfogar de båda programmen via fokus på effekten av livsmedelsbutiker marknadsföringsaktiviteter i form av sponsring gentemot deras kunder.

Sponsring beskrivs som en form av associationsmarknadsföring där ett företagen kan betala för kommersiella rättigheter, exempelvis en person, företag eller evenemang. I denna studie fokuserar vi på livsmedelsbutiker som använder sig av idrottsföreningar för att skapa medvetenhet om varumärket genom att sponsra lokala idrottsaktiviteter. Syftet med studien är att ta reda på vilken inverkan dessa aktiviteter har på konsumenternas attityd. Vi vill undersöka hur väl livsmedelsbutikerna lyckats med sin sponsring genom att, via enkäter, fråga konsumenterna hur de upplever sponsringen hos livsmedelsbutiken där de handlar.

Studien bygger på enkäter som delats ut till konsumenter utanför tre olika livsmedelsbutiker i Dalarna. Vid totalt fyra tillfällen uppgick antalet respondenter till sammanlagt 90 stycken med varierande ålder, civilstånd, idrottsintresse med mera.

Resultatet visar att merparten av respondenterna inte besöker butiken på grund av sponsringsaktiviteten, men att de generellt sett har en positiv attityd mot det. Vi visar även skillnader i attityden mellan olika grupper med avseende på individers koppling till idrott, antal barn och ålder. Slutligen ser vi att kännedomen kring sponsringen är hög.

Abstract [en]

This study is an examination in the form of a bachelor dissertation by two students at Dalarna University. One of them has studied the retail program and the other one has studied the sport management program. This study merges the two programs by focusing on the effect that grocery stores’ marketing activities in the form of sports sponsorship has on their customers.

Sponsorship is described as a form of association marketing where a company can pay for commercial rights, such as a person, company, or event. In this study we focus on grocery stores that utilize sport associations to create brand awareness by sponsoring local sport activities. The purpose of this study is to investigate the consumers attitude towards their local grocery stores from a sponsorship perspective. We want to examine how well the grocery stores have succeeded with their sponsorship by asking customers about their attitude and how they experience the sponsorship of the grocery store where they shop.

The study is based on surveys that were distributed outside three different grocery stores in Dalarna. The number of respondents during these four occasions amounted to a total of 90, all with varying age, marital state, sports interest and so forth.

The result shows that most of the respondent’s go to the specific grocery store because of the sponsorship activities, but that they generally perceive it as something positive. It also showed differences in perceived attitude depending on the degree of sports interest, number of children and age.
