Year 2014, Volume: 24 Issue: 4, 327 - 332, 01.12.2014

Abstract

Tüketici isteklerinin ve beklentilerinin karşılanma oranı, değişken ve dinamik bir sektör olan hazır giyim sektöründe en önemli rekabet faktörlerinden birisidir. Bu nedenle işletmeler tüketici isteklerine ve beklentilerine gereken önemi vermelidirler. Tüketiciler farklı hazır giyim markaları arasında tercihte bulunurlarken kalite, fiyat, tasarım gibi faktörlerden etkilenmektedirler. Son yıllarda tasarım faktörü diğer faktörlerin arasından ön plana çıkmıştır. Renk ise tasarımın en önemli unsurlarından birisidir. Bilindiği üzere renkler tüketicilerin satın alma davranışlarını etkilemektedir. Bu çalışma hazır giyim sektöründe tüketicilerin renk tercihlerini etkileyen faktörleri analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda 20 sorudan oluşan bir anket formu hazırlanmıştır. Bu anket çalışması Mart 2014 ayı içerisinde İzmir ilinde ikamet eden vatandaşlara yüz yüze görüşme tekniği kullanılarak uygulanmıştır. Anket çalışmasının ardından toplanan veriler SPSS 16.0 programı kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırmamızın sonuçlarına göre, Türk tüketiciler satın aldıkları giysilerin renklerine ve renk uyumlarına oldukça fazla önem vermektedir. Siyah, mavi ve lacivert giysilerde en çok tercih edilen renkler iken turuncu, pembe ve sarı en az tercih edilen renklerdir. Tüm bunlara ek olarak tüketicilerin demografik özellikleri ile renk tercihleri arasındaki ilişkiler analiz edilmiş ve sektöre yönelik önerilerde bulunulmuştur
