چکیده

یکی از اهداف اصلی برندها در بازار، حفظ و توسعه سهم بازار است و تنوع ‌پذیری برند می‌تواند کمک به‌سزایی به این امر کند. تنوع ‌پذیری در شرکت‌ها بایستی با توجه به شناخت از نیازهای مصرف‌کنندگان‏ و افزایش رفاه اجتماعی صورت بگیرد. در این مطالعه، تنوع، قیمت و ارزش ترجیحی برندهای کاله و پگاه محصول پنیر در بازار مشهد با استفاده از داده‌های پروژه نوشاد و شرکت صنایع شیر پگاه (شامل 425 فروشگاه‌ مواد غذایی درسال 1393) و با روش سیستم معادلات به ظاهر نامرتبط در قالب 4 سناریو برآورد و سپس تغییرات مازاد مصرف کننده، سود و رفاه اجتماعی به ازای یک واحد افزایش در تنوع هر برند محاسبه شد. نتایج نشان داد که درسناریوی 1، افزایش قیمت برند کاله نسبت به قیمت برند پگاه باعث کاهش تغییر مازاد مصرف کننده برند کاله، افزایش سود فروشگاه‌های مواد غذایی و کاهش مازاد رفاه اجتماعی می‌شود. سناریوی دوم نشان داد که کاهش قیمت برند کاله نسبت به قیمت برند پگاه به ترتیب باعث افزایش تغییر مازاد مصرف‌کننده، کاهش تغییرات سود برند کاله و افزایش رفاه اجتماعی می‌شود. برای سناریوی سوم تغییر مازاد مصرف کننده به ازای یک واحد افزایش در تنوع برند پگاه کاهش می‌یابد. همچنین در سناریوی سوم تغییرات سود به ازای یک واحد افزایش در تنوع برند پگاه افزایش می‌یابد. در سناریوی چهارم، یک واحد افزایش در تنوع برند پگاه باعث اندکی تغییر در مازاد مصرف کننده برند پگاه می‌شود. تغییرات سود در سناریوی چهارم به ازای یک واحد افزایش در تنوع برند پگاه، کاهش می‌یابد و رفاه اجتماعی را مقدار کمی می‏کاهد. بر اساس نتایج این مطالعه، زمانی تنوع پذیری برند کاله رفاه اجتماعی را افزایش می‌دهد که با یک واحد افزایش در تنوع پذیری برند کاله، قیمت برند کاله نسبت به برند پگاه افزایش نیابد.

چکیده [English]

One of the main objectives of brands in the market is to preserve and develop market share that brand diversity can play significant role in this regard. Diversification in companies should be performed based on recognizing the consumers’ needs and increased social welfare of them.  In this study, diversity, price, and preferred value of Kaleh and Pegah brands of cheese in Mashhad market were estimated using data of Naushad project and Pegah Milk Industry (including 425 food stores in 2014) and using seemingly unrelated regression system in the form of four scenarios. Then, changes in consumer surplus, and social welfare and profit per one unit increase in diversity of each brand have been calculated. The results showed that in the first scenario, increasing the the price of Kaleh brand compared to Pegah brand caused reduction in change of consumer surplus for Kaleh brand, increasing the profit of food stores and reducing the social welfare surplus. The second scenario showed that reducing the price of Kaleh brand compared to Pegah brand leads respectively to increase change in consumer surplus, reducing the profit changes for Kaleh brand and increased social welfare. In the third scenario, change in consumer surplus reduces per one unit increase in Pegah brand diversity. Also in third scenario, profit changes increases per one unit of increase in diversity of Pegah brand. In the fourth scenario, per one unit increase in the diversity of the Pegah brand leads to a slightly change in consumer surplus of the Pegah brand. In the fourth scenario, the change in profit per unit increase in the diversity of Pegah brands decreases and leads to a slight decline in social welfare. Based on the results of this study, it can be said that the time of diversification of Kaleh brand increases the social welfare, which, with an increase in the diversity of Kaleh brand, does not increase the price of Kaleh brand compared to Pegah brand.
