The Stock Market's Reaction to News of Food Tampering in the United States
This study examines the stock market's reaction to food tampering incidents to calculate the cost of such incidents to shareholders. It found that a firm loses approximately US$613 million in equity value on the day that news of a tampering incident is made public. The targeted firm also incurs additional costs that are associated with extra couponing to attract consumers after a tampering incident, litigation costs, and in some cases costs associated with removing the product from the market. Because food tampering incidents seem to only occur while the food item is in “the stream of commerce” and outside the manufacturer's direct control, the use of surveillance along the distribution channel and consumer education could be helpful in averting further incidents and possibly deaths.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Marketing Channels is the first and only professional marketing journal to focus exclusively on distribution systems, strategy, and management. The journal recognizes the growing importance of distribution as a key strategic variable in marketing management. Indeed, if one looks realistically at the major strategy variables of the marketing mix—product, price, promotion, and distribution—the greatest potential for achieving a competitive advantage now lies in distribution. The reason? Rapid technology transfer has made product advantages increasingly difficult to maintain. International operations seeking lower costs have made price advantages much harder to sustain because everybody seems to be “playing the same game.” Even promotion, which relies so heavily on mass media advertising, has become a battle of who can spend the most money. But distribution still offers a new frontier for competing successfully especially if the emphasis is placed on the design and management of superior marketing channel systems to provide excellent customer service. A competitive advantage gained through better distribution is not easily copied by the competition and hence becomes a long-term sustainable competitive advantage. Yet designing optimal marketing channel systems, formulating innovative distribution strategies, and managing marketing channel systems effectively is no simple task. In fact, professional marketing expertise of a very high order is required to meet these challenges, especially given the growing competitive role and rapid pace of web-based marketing. The Journal of Marketing Channels helps provide the knowledge and tools needed to develop superior distribution systems, strategies, and management. Leading authorities from around the world present the most up-to-date and in-depth thought, analysis, and research on these topics in this refereed international quarterly journal.
