The success of franchising contracts may depend on the market. Business format franchising is based on having a common brand name and concept within the chain developed by the franchisor. As intangible assets, all brands and related business concepts do not have the same profitability. Thus, we address the question of spatial organisation impact on franchise contracts managed by the parent brand in the Brazilian market. Within the traditional agency view, the presence of distant retail outlets leads the franchisor to choose a payment mechanism designed to provide incentives to the franchisee; that is, a low royalty rate associated with a high fixed fee. Based on a unique panel dataset, we provide evidence that spatial dispersion has the opposite impact in Brazil. This new insight suggests the need for brand assets protection, decisive in an emerging market context. Moreover, monetary provisions and alternative tools play a critical role in brand maintenance and support.

Subject area Marketing. Study level/applicability This case may be used by instructors to teach undergraduate, post graduate and executive level programmes in management. It may be used in basic marketing, branding or marketing strategy courses. The case may serve as a platform for the instructor to discuss the concepts and issues related to positioning and repositioning. Case overview Tata Chemicals, a subsidiary of the Tata group, launched the “i-Shakti” brand six years ago for its low-cost “solar-evaporated” salt for rural customers. In 2010, the company extended the brand equity of i-Shakti to a premium segment and launched a new brand “Tata i-Shakti” with a range of unpolished pulses. Changing the brand name and customer base from “i-Shakti for rural market” to “Tata i-Shakti for premium market” created a dilemma among customers in the market. To overcome this problem, in October 2015, the company’s portfolio of pulses, gram flour and food grade soda under “Tata i-Shakti” label has migrated into a new brand “Tata Sampann”. The company also launched a range of spices under the brand name of “Tata Sampann”. This new brand “Tata Sampann” was launched to serve the premium segment with an aim to “enrich everyday meals with extra nutrition and extra joy”. Also, this brand recreation was made by the company with anticipation to make avenues for future launches in the staples and food segment under Tata’s consumer products business. It has been almost a year since Tata Sampann was launched in the market. Given the tough competition and expected growth of the spices market in India, it remained to be seen whether “Tata i-Shakti” was rightly rebranded or repositioned with “Tata Sampann”. Expected learning outcomes To make participants understand the basic concepts of branding such as umbrella branding, brand repositioning and rebranding. To make participants learn about various brand elements and how they contribute in communicating the value proposition of the brand. To make participants appreciate various marketing and brand related strategies. Supplementary materials Teaching Notes are available for educators only.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to fill a current gap in the literature, through the development of theory concerned with changes that occur over time to the functions and importance of the brand name element of a branded entity. Design/methodology/approach An initial theoretical conceptualisation was developed from the existing literature. Study participants whose behaviour was found not to conform to this initial conceptualisation were included in subsequent research to obtain greater understanding. The study method used was a series of interviews, with the obtained qualitative data analysed using template analysis. This resulted in the development of a revised theoretical conceptualisation. Findings Various functions of the brand name element, identified as connotation, denotation, linking and branded entity constancy, are ongoing important providers of brand equity to some consumers for established branded entities. This challenges a position obtained from existing literature that the brand name element of an established branded entity becomes of minimal importance over time. Originality/value Value-generating functions of the brand name element that persist over time were identified, leading to the development of a theoretical conceptualisation of the change in the importance of brand name equity over time.

Companies with product line consisting of multiple brands very well understand the weightage of parent brand reputation as a seal of approval to consumers. This understanding not only helps them bolstering the reputation of other products but also creates a powerful brand voice and resulting brand equity. Brand equity is understood with the help of multiple dimensions in the existing literature. In addition to this, many researches on brand extension have traced the pivotal change in brand equity owing to the variation in brand extension attitude of consumers. However, very little amount of significant contribution has been observed with respect to the mediating role of parent brand reputation. Specifically, the article proposes to test the role of parent brand reputation in mediating the relationship of brand extension with brand equity.

The authors report the results of a laboratory experiment examining the effects of the meaningfulness of brand names on recall of advertising. The findings indicate that a brand name explicitly conveying a product benefit (e.g., PicturePerfect televisions) leads to higher recall of an advertised benefit claim consistent in meaning with the brand name compared with a nonsuggestive brand name (e.g., Emporium televisions). Conversely, a suggestive brand name leads to lower recall of a subsequently advertised benefit claim unrelated in product meaning (e.g., superior sound) compared with a nonsuggestive brand name. The authors discuss implications of these findings for marketers with respect to advertising strategies and the optimal use of meaningful brand names in building and managing brand equity.

Purpose – Reviews the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoints practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach – This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings – Globalization continues to have enormous consequences for business. One of the most intriguing thus far is the way that many firms defy humble origins to secure multinational status. Those that started life in an emerging market are a prime example of this transformation. Logic says that it should not really happen. After all, it is usually tough for any foreign company to crack an overseas market. Having to adjust to different regulations, cultural practices and business norms ensures that. There is often discrimination to overcome too. For emerging market multinationals (EMMs), such challenges are magnified to a considerable degree. If that is not enough, these companies are up against firms from advanced nations. That means competition boasting more resources, more knowledge, more international experience and a more recognized brand name. By definition, an EMM is a relatively new kid on the block in all these respects. Originality/value – The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to digest format.

Background. Brand equity has a positive impact on consumers’ selection of products and services, their perception, purchasing intentions, their willingness to pay more for brands. Brand equity is designed to reflect the real value from the perspective of consumer that a brand name holds for the products and services. Measuring brand equity is important because brands are believed to be strong influencers of business outcomes, such as sales and market share. The aim of this study was to describe the brand equity of tracksuits and investigate the purchasing behaviours of the tracksuit consumers. Methods. The research sample consisted of 250 athletes who were selected via random sampling method. “Consumer-Based Brand Equity Scale”, developed by Vazquez, del Rio, and Iglesias (2002), was implemented in order to measure consumer-based brand equity with regard to tracksuit brands. Results. Results of the study showed that the consumer based brand equity did not differ by gender, age, tracksuit usage purpose, tracksuit buying timing. However, it was found that the consumer based brand equity was significantly different in the number of tracksuits owned and the amount of payment. Conclusion. High brand equity brings the willingness to pay more for that brand. Consequently, it can be suggested that high level of consumer based brand equity enhances the amount of purchases and willingness to pay more. Although there are many studies on the brand equity in sports, such as shoes and teams, we have found no research on tracksuits. This research focuses on tracksuits’ brand equity. The results of this research contribute to sports marketing literature.
