Abstract

In this paper the consumer response to the deletion of an entire brand from a retail grocer’s assortment is reported. The study focused on three OOS responses: delaying purchases, switching brands and switching stores. In general the data show that almost 50% of consumers are unwilling to switch brands or postpone purchase in the category.
