Amidst the prolonged COVID - 19 Pandemic, Indonesian online marketplaces selling luxury brand products have been experienced a decrease in their market share, while on the other side, Indonesian online marketplaces selling standard products have been experienced a bullish position with their extraordinary increase of market share. In this research, we tried to examine the impact of brand satisfaction on customer advocacy with brand loyalty as both mediating and moderating variable and luxury brand attachment as mediating variable. Our focus in this research was on Indonesian marketplaces selling luxury brand products during this terrible pandemic, COVID - 19 Pandemic. We examined 108 customers who had purchasing experiences on luxury-brand sports shoes at Indonesian online marketplaces. In choosing our respondents, we used a non-probability sampling technique, the purposive sampling method. To analyze our hypothesis, we used a qualitative approach, which is path analysis. The results show that luxury brand attachment has a significant positive effect on brand loyalty, brand loyalty has a significant positive effect on customer advocacy, both mediated by brand loyalty and luxury brand attachment, and brand loyalty strengthens the impact of luxury brand attachment on customer advocacy. From that findings, we suggest that Indonesian online marketplaces that sell luxury brand products should increase their brand satisfaction through customer loyalty and luxury brand attachment to gain higher customer advocacy during and post COVID - 19 pandemic

This qualitative exploratory study assesses the technological disruptions in restaurant services caused by innovations in food delivery. A systematic review of the restaurant classification for the past two decades showed that the use of the term “restaurant delivery service” increased significantly since 2014 and is now used as often as “fast food service.” An improved typology of services as affected by technology is presented. A hypothetical model was developed to show the hierarchical progression of restaurant services as affected by technological innovations. Technological disruptions were categorized at different stages. The theory of disruptive innovation was assessed, and a hypothesis is presented to relate the impact on delivery services. Major disruptions identified are in the restaurant terminology/classification, widening of the distance between the service provider and customer contact points, and the potential collateral disruption to the service quality. Opportunities and challenges related to disruptions are identified.

The purpose of this article was to investigate the impact of career-related support in work and non-work domains on the aspirations of women for progression in career. Using multistage sampling technique, the data were collected from 438 female employees working in private sector banks and insurance companies in Punjab, a state in north India. AMOS-based structural equation modelling was performed, and the results revealed that family/spousal support in non-work domain and supervisory and organisational support in work domain significantly predicted the career aspirations of working women, whereas the impact of collegial support was not observed. Supervisor support was found to be the most significant source of support followed by family/spousal support and then organisational support. The present study is a pioneer work, which has empirically examined the role of various forms of contextual supports in work and non-work domains in determining the desired aspirations of working women in India. The study proposes that collective efforts on the part of women themselves, their families, supervisors, colleagues and organisations are required to enhance working women’s propensity to aspire and realise their aspirations for advancement in career.

The crisis ignited by COVID-19 has transformed the volume and composition of waste generation and requires a dynamic response from policy makers. This study selected Bangkok as a case study to semi-quantitatively examine the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on consumer-generated food and plastic waste by examining changes in lifestyles and consumption behaviour through a face-to-face questionnaire survey. Travel bans and diminished economic activity due to COVID-19 have led to a dramatic reduction in waste from the business sector and in the total amount of municipal waste generated. However, the results of the survey showed that both food and plastic waste generated by households in Bangkok increased during COVID-19. The shift from eating out to online food delivery services led to an increase in plastic bags, hot-and-cold food bags, plastic food containers, and food waste. Reasons for the increase in household food waste during COVID-19 varied, with respondents citing excessive amounts of food and unappetising taste, followed by exceeding the expiration date and rotting/foul odours. These reasons may be the result of the inability to predict quantity and quality when ordering online, and inadequate food planning and management by consumers. To achieve more effective food and plastic waste management, home delivery services, consumer food planning and management, and the formation of a circular economy based on localised supply chains may be considered as important intervention points.
