Abstract

The purpose of this master’s thesis is to determine different effects service failure during the process of recovery in terms of customer complaints in the apparel industry can have. First, a comprehensive literature research was conducted, which provided a basis for further investigations, such as the development of the conceptual model and propositions. With the help of the conceptual model, ten propositions were set up and analyzed with the help of a qualitative study. Therefore, a qualitative questionnaire was developed and carried out, by interviewing a total of twenty participants. The interviews took place face-to-face and via online communication tools such as “Zoom” and “Microsoft Teams”. The aim of the study was to reveal service failure factors that occurred during the service recovery processes of companies. The results of this study, which are discussed within this master thesis, were derived from MAXQDA.
