This study aims to investigate the influence of two core constructs-professional competence and relationship quality demonstrated by customs brokers-on customer loyalty within Taiwan's customs brokerage industry. Based on the Resource-Based View, Dynamic Capability Theory, and Relationship Marketing Theory, this study constructs an integrated research model. The study employed a questionnaire survey method, sampling personnel from import/export companies in Taiwan with experience in commissioning customs brokers. A total of 212 valid responses were collected, and hypotheses were tested using linear regression analysis. The findings indicate that: (1) Within relationship quality, trust is the strongest positive predictor of customer loyalty. (2) Within professional competence, continuous learning and innovation and knowledge and skills have a significant positive influence on customer loyalty. (3) Commitment, risk management, and information technology application exhibit a significant negative influence on customer loyalty. (4) The impacts of satisfaction and communication and customer service are not significant. This study concludes that to build customer loyalty, customs brokers should shift their strategic focus from pursuing transactional satisfaction to cultivating long-term trust and should internalize innovation capabilities as a core competence. |
