Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the linkages among cross-channel integration capability (CCI), showrooming, webrooming, and customer value of retail enterprises. From the literature review, this research proposes the research model on the direct impact of showrooming and webrooming on customer value as well as the indirect impact of cross-channel integration capability on customer value which is mediated by both showrooming and webrooming of retail enterprises. Research design, data, and methodology: By conducting a survey of 304 consumers in the five biggest retailers in Hanoi-Vietnam from mid-September 2021 to the end of November 2021, the PLS-SEM was used to test the hypotheses. Results: The research results reveal the favorable impact of (CCI) on improving showrooming and webrooming, and the important role of developing both showrooming and webrooming in bringing more value to the customer of retail enterprises. The findings also express that showrooming and webrooming acts mediating role in the favorable relationship between (CCI) and customer value of retailers. Conclusions: This research clarifies the positive impact of (CCI), showrooming, and webrooming on customer value. In addition, this study suggests practical implications for retail managers to provide more value for customers by enhancing (CCI) and developing both showrooming and webrooming.
