台灣零售市場開放,跨國性連鎖店紛紛進駐國內開設分店,商品來源除了由國內供應商供貨之外,亦由國外進口供應,因此國內跨國性連鎖店所販售商品之集貨與配送問題,為一值得探討之課題。在物流體系中,前進型物流中心為最簡單之物流中心,其可扮演著「進可攻、退可守」的角色,尤其是對一個跨國性連鎖店來說,進軍一個新零售市場、或對規模較小的零售市場,前進型物流中心正如其名,可作為「前進」該零售市場的物流中心。 本研究藉由連鎖店之業態、連鎖店之經營方式與商品來源、以及物流中心等,了解連鎖業之商品集貨與配送運作模式,並且選取各業態中,較具代表性之業者作為本研究之研究對象,包括便利店之統一超商、量販店之家樂福、百貨店之無印良品、以及傢具量販店之宜家家居等,據以進行案例研究,並解析其如何藉助區域性物流中支援前進型物流中心進行販賣商品之集配作業。 研究顯示,跨國性連鎖店因販賣商品之品項與供貨來源不同,將導致集配方式有所差異,亦影響前進型物流中心之設置、以及區域性物流中心支援前進型物流中心之項目不同,或依功能區分、或依商品品項區分。此外,海運貨櫃運輸、以及進口國進出口自由度與物流服務水準皆會影響前進型物流中心設置規模與服務功能。 關鍵字:跨國性連鎖店;跨國集配;前衛性物流中心台灣零售市場開放,跨國性連鎖店紛紛進駐國內開設分店,商品來源除了由國內供應商供貨之外,亦由國外進口供應,因此國內跨國性連鎖店所販售商品之集貨與配送問題,為一值得探討之課題。在物流體系中,前進型物流中心為最簡單之物流中心,其可扮演著「進可攻、退可守」的角色,尤其是對一個跨國性連鎖店來說,進軍一個新零售市場、或對規模較小的零售市場,前進型物流中心正如其名,可作為「前進」該零售市場的物流中心。 本研究藉由連鎖店之業態、連鎖店之經營方式與商品來源、以及物流中心等,了解連鎖業之商品集貨與配送運作模式,並且選取各業態中,較具代表性之業者作為本研究之研究對象,包括便利店之統一超商、量販店之家樂福、百貨店之無印良品、以及傢具量販店之宜家家居等,據以進行案例研究,並解析其如何藉助區域性物流中支援前進型物流中心進行販賣商品之集配作業。 研究顯示,跨國性連鎖店因販賣商品之品項與供貨來源不同,將導致集配方式有所差異,亦影響前進型物流中心之設置、以及區域性物流中心支援前進型物流中心之項目不同,或依功能區分、或依商品品項區分。此外,海運貨櫃運輸、以及進口國進出口自由度與物流服務水準皆會影響前進型物流中心設置規模與服務功能。
Due to the openness of Taiwan's retail market, most of famous transnational chain stores have set up branches in Taiwan. Commodities sold in chain stores are often offered by international suppliers. Therefore, the commodity consolidation and distribution problem (CCDP) of the transnational chain stores facing is more complicated than that of the local chain stores facing. This thesis makes an attempt to study this CCDP. Furthermore, transnational chain stores usually make use of the frontier distribution centers (FDC) to solve their logistics problems when they enter a new or small-scale retail market. This thesis will also study this topic. The case study is chosen to study the CCDP of different type of transnational chain stores, including convenience stores, hypermarkets, department stores and furniture discount stores. PCSC, Carrefour, Muji and IKEA are selected as the representative of each type of transnational chain stores. The research has shown that transnational chain stores selling commodities which are self-development, manufacturing and imported from abroad will have complicated consolidation systems. Furthermore, commodities distributed to chain stores by LCL (Less than container load) transportation or by CL (container load) transportation will affect the distribution system a lot. If chain stores can make use of CL, the direct shipment will be adopted. Moreover, the contents of regional distribution centers supporting FDC will depend on whether LCL transportation or CL transportation adopted. In addition, the maritime container transportation as well as logistics service level will affect the size and service functions of FDC.
