1.1 INTRODUCTION
Nowadays, everyone has their jobs and they have to work full-time in offices,
construction sites, factories, etc. Therefore, going to the market, choosing groceries,
buying them, and cooking them into meals is a difficult task, and not everyone can
manage it properly. Busy people are willing to pay extra to order food online, and they
will be quickly delivered instead of bringing packed lunches or eating out. Along with the
development of the economy, consumer standards are increasing and becoming more
demanding. They not only want delicious food but also home delivery services.
Understanding the psychology of customers, companies have introduced food ordering
and delivery apps. Customers just need to choose their favorite dishes and place an order,
and the delivery drivers will quickly deliver the food. Therefore, online food delivery
application are becoming increasingly popular.
People who have worked in cities have a faster pace of life, and part of the reason is that
they are too busy to go to restaurants and wait in long lines. Instead, having an online
food delivery app would be more convenient for them. Online food delivery application
have become a new and rapidly expanding industry in many regions, including both
developed and developing countries. Apps like Uber Eats, Deliveroo, and DoorDash in
the United States; Just Eat and Deliveroo in the United Kingdom; or Ele.me and Meituan
Dianping in China have quickly become major players in the food and dining service
industry. Similarly, the online food delivery application market in Vietnam has witnessed
fierce competition among businesses providing such services, such as Shopee Food, Grab
Food, Baemin, Loship, etc., to meet the increasing demands of customers. According to a
report by ychoc.com, the total expected revenue of Vietnam's online food delivery market
in 2023 ranks fifth among Southeast Asian countries, after Indonesia, the Philippines,
Thailand and Malaysia. Vietnam is one of the countries with the fastest growth rate, with
approximately 10 million monthly online food delivery application users. These reasons
are expected to drive the development of online food delivery activities in Vietnam, with
an estimated annual growth rate of 17.25% in the period 2023-2027. Can Tho City is one
of the large and bustling cities in the Mekong Delta region, with a high demand for online
food delivery application.
Therefore, research on the factors influencing customer satisfaction with the quality of
online food delivery application is crucial to help online food delivery application
businesses improve service quality, enhance competitiveness, and maintain sustainable
development. In addition, providing quality services is considered one of the important
strategies for the success and sustainability of organizations (Parasuraman, Zeithaml, &
Berry, 1985; Zeithaml, Bitner, & Gremler, 2009). Currently, with advancing technology
1
and increasing demand pressure, services that are of good quality and efficient play a
crucial role. When services are provided effectively, it will increase customer demand
and build trust in using the service. To achieve this goal, the author needs to understand
customer psychology and identify key factors that affect customer satisfaction with the
quality of online food delivery application. From there, attention can be focused on
developing factors that have a strong impact on attracting customer attention instead of
focusing on unimportant factors. And that is the reason the author chose the topic:
"Factor affecting customer’s satisfaction with service quality on the online food delivery
application at Can Tho city".

- Research focus: The factor affecting customer satisfaction with service quality on
online food delivery application.

In this final chapter, a conclusion about how direct procurement affects the factor
involved will be drawn. In addition, this chapter will provide e-retailers with solutions to
help them grow their business to meet the needs of Can Tho’s consumers. With respect,
limitations and suggestions will be presented in this chapter to support future studies in
developing more efficient alternatives in the future.

CHAPTER 2:
THEORETICAL BACKGROUND
2.1 THEORETICAL BACKGROUND
2.1.1 Customer Satisfaction.
For a long time, consumer satisfaction has been significant research in marketing
strategy. Customer satisfaction is a crucial factor that impacts the success of online food
delivery application businesses. Customer satisfaction not only reflects the level of
contentment with products and services but also is closely related to customer loyalty,
word-of-mouth referrals, and repeat purchases. Consumer satisfaction can determine
customer needs and determine what is of value to customers. Consumer satisfaction
will help the product or service meet the excellent standard of a particular
business.Customers are always the most essential element in market share and business
growth (Kok & Kim, 2021). Satisfaction is an emotional or psychological response to a
center, such as wishes, product, use experience, and immediately after use, after the vote,
the accumulation of experience (Kumar, 2020). Satisfied customers is having a positive
experience with the service quality (price, promotion, tangibility, reliability,
responsiveness, and empathy) which makes customers more likely to use the app again
and make similar decisions in the future (Handayani et al., 2022). According to Philip
Kotler (2006), "Satisfaction is a person's feeling of pleasure or disappointment resulting
from comparing a product's (or result's) perceived performance in relation to his or her
expectations”. Bachelet (1995) states that customer satisfaction is an emotional response
of customers based on their experience with a product. Customer satisfaction is the
evaluation by customers of a product (goods) or service that meets their needs and
expectations, which has been widely used by the Servqual five-component model
(Asubonteng et al., 1996; Buttle, 1996 & Robinson, 1999). Zeithaml, Bitner & Gremler
(1996) argue that customer satisfaction is the customer's acknowledgment or agreement
when the product or service meets their expectations after experiencing its use. In other
words, satisfaction is the level of contentment or happiness of consumers after using the
service. On the other hand, satisfaction can be defined as “a judgement that a product or
service feature, or the product or service itself, provided (or is providing) a pleasure level
of consumption-related fulfillment, including levels of under- or over-fulfillment”
(Oliver, 1997).
2.1.2 Services Quality
Like the concept of service, service quality is also a concept that attracts a lot of attention
and controversy. There are many different definitions of what service quality is.
According to Gröonroos (1988), service quality is commonly defined as a discrepancy
5
between the service quality that is delivered by the organization and the service
performance that employees expect. Conceptually, service quality is defined as global
judgment or attitude relating to the overall excellence or superiority of the service
(Parasuraman et al., 1988). Service quality is the customer's final assessment of the
excellence of the service and organization providing it (Schneider & White, 2004).
According to Edvardsson, Thomsson and Ovretveit (1994), service quality is a service
that meets customer expectations and satisfies their needs. Mohammad & Alhamadani
(2011) define service quality as "the delivery of excellent or superior service relative to
customer expectations" and perceived service quality as the finding of the customer
regarding the total distinction of a product or service. Service quality is further been
described (Parasuraman et al., 1985) as the gap between the customers’ expectation
(desires and wants) of service provided and their opinion about the service encounter. In
this study, delivery service quality is simply defined as the process of delivering products
to consumers in a way that maximally satisfies the customer's initial expectations for
delivery activitie. The satisfaction level of customers is strongly correlated with the
quality of customer care they get since they are the ultimate consumers of a company's
goods or services. Hence, enterprises that depend on service providing as a major or
secondary income stream must use effective approaches to precisely assess the quality of
their services. Furthermore, several organizations use the service quality instrument,
often referred to as the service quality dimensions (Landrum et al., 2009), to assess the
extent of client satisfaction and retention. Parasuraman et al. (1988) were the first to
introduce the notion of "service quality" as a complete tool for assessing the quality of
services, using input gathered from focus groups.
2.1.3 Online Food Delivery Application (OFDA)
Online food delivery application services are growing in popularity and people are more
inclined to repeat again if that service can influence customer satisfaction in service
quality (Koay et al., 2022). Online food delivery application refers to “the process
whereby food that was ordered online is prepared and delivered to the consumer” Li et
al., (2020). Online food delivery application offer various benefits to their customers
including no waiting in line, no traveling for pick-up, no misunderstanding of the order
which happen frequently in restaurants or phone call orders, and discounts from daily
offers. Online food delivery app can be defined as any food delivery transaction with
monetary value that is done through mobile handheld devices, such as smartphones or
personal digital assistants. Academicians, marketing managers, and even retail industries
are continuously engaged in the enhancement of online food delivery application, aiming
to minimize the costs while maximizing the number of users. Viet Nam is one of the
developing countries that heavily utilizes OFDA in daily activities.

2.2 SERQUAL MODEL
The SERVQUAL scale (Parasuraman et al., 1988) is one of the most popular instruments
to measure service quality. Established on this instrument, a great number of published
studies make use of and evaluated SERVQUAL (Al-Tamimi & Al-Amiri, 2003; Khudri
& Sultana, 2015). In this research study, SERVQUAL scale was adopted and customized
to measure restaurant service quality and the relationship between service quality and
customer satisfaction on online food delivery applications.

Tieu Phuong Lam (2023) conducted a research study on “ Examining the effect of
logistics service quality on customer satisfaction and re-use intention”. Using partial least
squares structural equation modeling on 810 respondents who were adult Chinese
customers, this study discovered that operational, resource, information, personal contact,
7
and customization qualities positively affect the satisfaction of logistics service
customers, while customer satisfaction positively affects re-use intention. The results
revealed that customer satisfaction mediated the connection between the five components
of LSQ and the re-use intention of logistics services. This study has five limitations that
need to be considered: First, this study, being solely quantitative, may lack the
comprehensive understanding that can be gained through a qualitative research design.
Second, in this study, a sample of customers was drawn from a single developing
economy, which may not be generalizable to all economies. Third, this study was
restricted to customers who had shopped earlier at a specific retailer, which may have
resulted in a biased sample. Fourth, CS represents only a single performance variable
that affects service quality and was used in the current study. Fifth, the model mentioned
in this study did not consider moderating variables such as demographic factors including
age, sex, occupation, and monthly income. Future research may consider including
moderating factor variables to investigate how demographic characteristics, such as sex,
age, and so on, influence perceptions of customer satisfaction or logistics service re-use
intention.
Vu Le Huy et al (2020) has conducted a study on “The impact of delivery service quality
on customer satisfaction and loyalty in retail e-commerce”. The study aims to test the
relationship between delivery service quality and customer satisfaction in retail e-
commerce services and between satisfaction and customer loyalty. The study analyzed
data validly collected from 384 customers mainly living in the Hai Phong area. The
results of exploratory factor analysis and linear regression confirm that delivery service
quality factors have a positive impact on customer satisfaction and customer satisfaction
also has a positive impact on loyalty. Customer success in retail e-commerce services.
The study offers a number of implications to help retail e-commerce businesses improve
customer satisfaction and create customer loyalty: research needs to be conducted with
the participation of customers using e-commerce. e-commerce in many other localities,
need to focus more on improving the quality of delivery services and pay attention to
training delivery staff and call center staff to have an attitude of providing service. better
service and communication with customers.
2.3.2 International Research
Baum et al (2023) has conducted a study on “Service quality of online food delivery
mobile application: An examination of the spillover effect of mobile app satisfaction on
food satisfaction". This study drew on the mSERVQUAL model and spillover theory to
examine the mechanism through which food-ordering mobile app service quality
influences users’ mobile app satisfaction. Online surveys were completed by 1,000
customers who used a foodordering mobile app to order fast food on the day they
completed the online survey. Structural equation modelling was then used to examine the
8
proposed mechanism. Results showed that the effects of food-ordering mobile app
service quality on customer satisfaction (i.e., mobile app satisfaction and food
satisfaction) and repurchase intention varied widely across service quality dimensions.
Mobile app service quality had significant spillover effects on food satisfaction and
repurchase intention.
Ahmad A. Al-Tit (2015) conducted a research study on “The effect of service and food
quality on customer satisfaction and hence customer retention”. The aim of this study was
to investigate the relationships between service quality, food quality, customer
satisfaction and customer retention in limited service restaurants in Jordan. A
questionnaire-based survey was distributed to 400 students served at 10 limited service
restaurants in the neighbourhood of universities in Amman, the capital city of Jordan.
Service quality was measured in terms of SERVQUAL attributes. The findings showed
that service quality and food quality have a positive influence on customer satisfaction. In
addition, service quality dimensions besides customer satisfaction have a positive
influence on customer retention. The practical implications of this study are founded on
the fact that limited service restaurants in the neighbourhood of universities should
realize the critical role of service and food quality in satisfying their customers as an
antecedent of their retention. This study is original as it examines the relationships
between service and food quality and customer satisfaction and retention in a specific
type of restaurants in Jordan.
Anis Zulaikha Binti Rosli (2023) conducted a research study on “ The effect of service
quality on customer satisfaction in online food delivery service among Malaysian
generation Z. This study is to determine the relationship between the service quality
dimension which are tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy with
customer satisfaction in online food delivery service among Malaysian generation Z. An
online questionnaire was distributed through social media to users of online food delivery
service among generation Z with selected age of 18-26 years old. The number of sample
size is 150 and this study used non-probability sample and purposive sampling
techniques. The result obtained and showing that the relationship between all the
dimensions of service quality is significant on customer satisfaction in online food
delivery service among generation Z.
Daffa Hafizh Ananda (2022) conducted a research study on “The influence of price,
service quality and trust on online transportation towards consumer satisfaction” The
purpose of this study is to find out how much influence service quality, price, and trust
have on customer satisfaction on Go-car Protect + online transportation in Indonesia. The
research method used in this study is a quantitative method with causal analysis
techniques. Data collection techniques used through primary data with questionnaires.
9
The sample taken in this study was 390 users of the Go- Car protect online transportation
service in Indonesia The results of this study resulted in the finding that service quality,
price and trust had a partial and simultaneous positive effect on customer satisfaction.The
limitations identified during this study are focuses on finding out how service quality,
price and trust and the choice of research subjects is not diverse. Further researchers are
advised to add other additional variables that can influence consumer satisfaction to be
even better, conduct research with a wider sample of respondents to get more accurate
results and conduct research using indicators and references from different and up-to-date
sources and recommended for further research to be able to choose more diverse research
objects, such as competitors from Gocar protect or other similar businesses or services.
Cantyka Trisand, Doni Putra Utama (2022) conducted a research study on “The influence
of service quality and price on customer satisfaction on Gojek users at Batam State
Polytechnic”. This study aims to examine the extent to which service quality and price
influence customer satisfaction on Gojek users in Batam Polytechnic State. The
population of this research is active students majoring in Managerial Accounting,
Applied Business Administration, and International Trade Logistics for the 2018 and
2020 class of employees at the Batam State Polytechnic. The total respondents are 100
students. This study uses a quantitative approach and data collection methods through
surveys by distributing questionnaires through Google Form. The results of this study
prove that service quality has a significant positive effect on customer satisfaction, Price
has a significant positive effect on customer satisfaction, and Service quality and price
have a significant positive effect on customer satisfaction. Further research, it is
suggested to other researchers to be able to examine other factors that influence Customer
Satisfaction on Gojek users.

a business that provides good service because it is reliable, which in turn increases levels
of customer satisfaction (Saad, 2020). For the food & beverage industry, reliability can be
interpreted to mean fresh food delivered at the correct temperature and accurately the first
time (Andaleeb & Conway, 2006). Researchers have established a favourable
relationship between reliability and customer satisfaction in the service industry (Kian
Yeik et al., 2022).
H1: Reliability has a positively influences on consumer satisfaction.
2.4.2 Tangible Elements
Tangibility is the appearance of physical facilities such as the equipment, employees, and
written information (Sahak et al., 2018). The three elements of tangible of service quality
are offline, online, and mobile (Yunji & Armstrong, 2020). Tangibles are used by firms
to convey animage and signal quality. It interprets to the restaurant’s interiors, the
appearance and condition of the cutlery, tableware, and uniform of the staff, the
appearance and design of the menu, restaurant signage and advertisements (Fourie,
2015). The previous studies mention that the dimension ‘tangibility' evaluated the
restaurants physical features and layout’s utility which would influence the perception
quality. For example, the consumer would examine the cleanliness of the floor, the smell
of the air, arrangement of the table and much more which contribute to the persecution of
service quality (Sahak et al., 2019). In the aspect of online tangible, app designed, or
websites has aesthetic indicate visual attractiveness (Yunji & Armstrong, 2020). Besides
that, ease of use of app or Websites. It refers to the customer ability to utilize a
userfriendly Web interface (Yunji & Armstrong, 2020). Another factor is customer notice
that the delivery people with proper uniform and packaging of food is importance (Parab
et al., 2022).
H2: Tangible elements has a positively influences on consumer satisfaction.
2.4.3 Perceived Price
Price always plays an important role and determines the choice of product or
service. Al-msallam (2015) indicated the price is an essential factor in generating
customer satisfaction because customers always evaluate the value of services based on
their prices. Martın-Consuegra et al. (2003) showed that perceived price is directly
affected by consumer satisfaction judgment. At the same time, perceived price fairness
indirectly affects price acceptance through customer loyalty. Susanti (2019) stated
that price is an essential factor in determining customer satisfaction because all
consumers evaluate the value of the service received at the price they paid. As a result,
perceived unfair prices may lead to brand abandonment and brand switching.
Rothenberger's (2015) research shows that perceived price airness is an effective way to
evaluate consumer satisfaction and increase customer loyalty.
13
H3: Perceived price has a positively influences on consumer satisfaction.
2.4.4 Promotion
Promotion is marketing communication tools used to stimulate revenue. Promotions
activities also can influence consumers to change brands, increase purchases and
overspending. Pi & Huang (2011) research found that promotion can maintain customer
loyalty by improving consumer satisfaction, trust and commitment. The research
results of Alipour et al. (2018) showed that appropriate promotional activities have a
significant impact on consumer satisfaction. Nakarmi's (2018) research shows that
customers are too satisfied with price discounts, coupons, free samples and "buy
one get one free". Therefore, promotional practices will improve sales by influencing
kconsumers' purchase behaviour.
H4: Promotion has a positively influences on consumer satisfaction.
2.4.5 Empathy
Empathy is defined as the “caring, individualized attention the firm provides its customer
(Zeithaml et al., 2006) in Fourie, 2015). Empathy defined as providing individualized
care to each consumer (Park & Kim, 2022). Empathy is all about treating the customer
that he is unique and special smaller companies can especially succeed in this over larger
companies as well as industries that focus on building a relationship with their customers.
(Andaleeb & Conway, 2006). Empathy is defined as personalised attention provides to
the customers (Ramya et al., 2019). This includes ensuring that employees provide
individual attention to customers, that operation time are convenient for all customers,
that employees are compassionate to customer problems, and that customers' best
interests are prioritised (Sahak et al., 2019). Individual attention towards each customer is
a necessary attitude in some countries around the world (Kobiruzzaman, 2020). This
element wants to describe the idea that customers are unique and special to the company
by providing individualised or personalised services (Ramya et al., 2019).
H5: Empathy has a positively influences on consumer satisfaction.
2.4.6 Responsiveness
Responsiveness “is the willingness to help customers and provide prompt service” (Harr,
2008). Responsiveness is the service provider's or workers' willingness to meet consumer
needs (Sahak et al., 2019). Responsiveness relates to the punctually dealing with
customers’ request, complaints, and questions. The responsiveness of a service provider
or its employees is evaluated by their ability to react to a customer's service demand
(Sahak et al., 2019). The time duration customers may wait for an answer or solution will
determine responsiveness. To simplify, customer’s issues are resolved as fast as possible
due to responsiveness by providing anticipated information or changing products
(Kobiruzzaman, 2020). The responsiveness conditions can be improved by constantly
14
observing the process of service delivery and employees' attitudes toward customers ’
requests (Ramya et al., 2019).
H6: Responsiveness has a positively influences on consumer satisfaction.
This research article synthesizes and adjusts certain points from previous studies to align
with the field and research objectives of the topic. Specifically, the satisfaction measures
will be compiled by the research team from the reviewed studies and propose factors that
are relevant to the research field of higher education and achieve the expected research
outcomes. Additionally, through the literature review, the research team aims to verify
customer satisfaction with the service quality of online food delivery applications. As a
result, the study proposes a research model as shown in Figure 2.2.

CHAPTER 3. DATA COLLECTION AND RESEARCH
METHODOLOGY
3.1. DATA COLLECTION METHOD
3.1.1. Primary Data
The sample consists of customers who are currently using online food delivery
applications in Can Tho City, with varying genders, occupations, incomes, educational
backgrounds, etc. According to Hair et al. (2010), in factor analysis, the minimum
number of observations should be at least five times the number of observed variables. In
the research model, there are 33 observed variables. Therefore, the minimum required
sample size is n = 5x33 = 165. The author chose a sample size of 218 for the formal
study, which is considered large enough to meet the requirements and account for
potential cases of non-standard or excluded samples. Next, the author will process the
data using SPSS, which includes the following steps: descriptive statistics, running
Cronbach's Alpha, running EFA to test the convergence and discriminant validity of the
component variables. Subsequently, correlation analysis, ANOVA, and regression
analysis will be performed.
3.1.2. Secondary Data
The secondary data for the research topic is primarily collected from websites or social
media platforms of the applications, the electronic portal of Can Tho City, relevant
reports, and studies on customer satisfaction with the service quality of online food
delivery applications.
16
Average value (Mean, Average): Equals the sum of all values of the observed variable
divided by the number of observations.
Median number: Is the value of the middle variables of a series of numbers sorted in
ascending or descending order. The median divides the sequence into 2 parts, each with
an equal number of observations.
Variance: Is the average between the square of deviations between the variables and the
mean of those variables.
Standard deviation: Is the square root of the variance.
3.2.2. Cronbach's Alpha
Cronbach's Alpha test is used to evaluate the reliability of groups of factors and each
small variable within that group of factors to avoid the case that garbage variables can
produce dummy factors.
Observed variables must have an item-total correlation greater than 0.3. If there is a
variable with total correlation system less than 0.3 in Cronbach's Alpha analysis, it will
be rejected (Nunnally & Burnstein, 1994). At the same time. Cronbach's Alpha
coefficients of factor groups must be between 0.6 and 1.0 (Peterson, 1994).
3.2.3. Analysis to exploratory EFA
This method is used to divide the independent variables into groups with similar
properties and characteristics. Factor analysis is the generic name of a group of
procedures that are mainly used to miniature and summarize data.
Barlett's test of sphericity is a statistical measure used to examine hypotheses that
variables are not correlated in population with the following hypothesis:
If the p value < a, hypothesis is rejected and if the p value > a, hypothesis is accepted.
Correlation matrix (Correlation matrix): Shows the correlation coefficient between all
pairs of variables in the analysis. Theoretically, the correlation coefficient is normally
above 0.7, the variables have a very high correlation with each other. In practice,
however, the standard 0.7 is too high and the number of standards is not actually met.
Therefore in practice a study specifically for exploration purposes will use a lower level
with a correlation coefficient of 0.5.
Communality: Is the amount of variation of a variable explained together with other
variables considered in the analysis. This is the variation explained by the general factors.
Eigenvalue: Represents the variation explained for each factor. With this criterion, only
fators with Eigenvalue ≥ 1 are kept in the analytical model.
17
Total Variance Explained ≥ 50% shows that the EFA model is suitable. Considering the
variation as 100% this value represent how much % of the extracted fators are condensed
and how many % of the observed variables are lost.
Factor loading: is the correlation coefficients between variables and factors.
Factor matrix: Contains factor load coefficients of the variables for the factors
Factor scores: Synthesis is estimated for each observation on the factors drawn, also
known as multiplier scores
Kaise-Meyer-Olkin (KMO): is the index used to consider the appropriateness of factor
analysis, 0.5 <KMO value <1 is sufficient condition for factor analysis is appropriate, if
KMO value is small more than 0.5, the data is inconsistent
The method of Regression Analysis
3.2.4 Regression Analysis
In research, we often must test hypotheses about the relationship between two or more
variables, in which there is a dependent variable and one or more independent variables.
If there are two or more independent variables, the model is called Multiple Linear
Regression (MLR)
The next content in this document only refers to multiple regression, regression similar
properties to multiple regression.
Multiple regression equation: Y = ꞵ0 + ꞵ1X1 + ꞵ2X2 + ... + ꞵnXn+e
In there:
Y: dependent variable, is the variable that is affected by another variable. X, X 1,X2, Xn:
independent variable, is the variable that affects other variables.
ꞵ0: regression constant, also known as intercept coefficient, this is an index that
fellesstowhat the value of Y would be if all Xs were equal to 0. In other words, it tells us
what the value of Y would be if there were no Xs. When shown above Oxy graph, Bo is
the point on the Oy axis that the regression line intersects.
ꞵ1, ꞵ2, ꞵn: regression coefficient, also known as slope coefficient. This metric tells us
about the change in Y caused by the corresponding X. In other words, this metric tells
how many units of Y will change if X increases or decreases by one.
e: error. The larger this index, the more likely the regression prediction becomes less
accurate or more deviating from reality. The error in the population regression or the
residual in the sample regression represents two values, one being independent variables
18
outside the model, the other being in statistics, the problem we want to evaluate is the
information of the random errors.

CHAPTER 5. RESULTS
5.1. DESCRIPTIVE STASTICS
The research topic involves conducting interviews with customers in Can Tho City who
are currently using online food delivery applications in Can Tho City. The data collection
is done using a pre-designed questionnaire, and a convenience sampling method is
employed. During the screening, data cleaning, and data encoding process, the author
selected and retained 218 observations that provided complete and accurate responses.
Therefore, the number of observations included in the analysis of factors influencing
customer satisfaction with the service quality of online food delivery applications in Can
Tho City is 218. To gain a better understanding of the characteristics of the sample, the
author analyzed frequencies and described information about the respondents'
characteristics.

Gender: Based on the processed data collected from a total of 218 respondents,
there were 129 male respondents, accounting for 59.2%, and 89 female respondents,
accounting for 40.8%. This indicates that there were significantly more male participants
surveyed compared to female participants. However, this can be easily explained by the
fact that males tend to use online food delivery applications more frequently than
females, as they often order food through these platforms.
Age: Through the processed data collected from 218 respondents, it is evident that
the age group of 18-29 years had the highest number of respondents, with 139
participants, accounting for 63.8%. This indicates that young people have a keen interest
and positive outlook towards new technological products. Additionally, the age group
above 30 had 58 respondents, accounting for 26.6%, while the age group below 18 had
21 respondents, accounting for 9.6%. This significant difference between respondents of
different age groups demonstrates that regardless of age, respondents have a certain level
of interest in online food delivery services.
Place: Based on the processed data collected from 218 respondents, it is evident
that the highest number of respondents resided in Ninh Kieu District, with 80 participants
accounting for 36.7%. This was followed by Binh Thuy District and Cai Rang District,
with 70 and 80 respondents respectively, accounting for 32.1% and 31.2%. This indicates
that while there is a significant variation in the number of respondents, they are
distributed across most districts of Can Tho City.
29
Occupation: Based on the processed data collected from 218 respondents, the
occupational group with the highest frequency is the Students group, with 97
respondents, accounting for 44.5%. The participation of respondents in this group
provided valuable insights into how today's young generation receives and utilizes
technology in managing their personal finances. Next, the Business and Entrepreneurship
group and the Government Employees group had 52 and 42 respondents respectively,
with percentages of 23.9% and 19.3%. This indicates the significant interest of the
business community in Can Tho City and their satisfaction with the online food delivery
application in enhancing financial management and saving time. Finally, there were 26
respondents in the Office Workers group, accounting for 11.9%. Additionally, there was
1 respondent who chose the Engineering profession, accounting for 0.5%. Although the
proportion is not high, the participation of this group contributes to the diversification of
the sample size and provides an overview of customer satisfaction with the online food

5.2. ASSESSING CUSTOMER SATISFACTION ON SERVICE QUALITY
OF ONLINE FOOD DELIVERY APPLICATION IN CAN THO CITY
5.2.1 Order picking applications
Based on the survey results shown in Figure 5.1, it is evident that Shopee is the most
widely used application, accounting for 51.1%, followed by Grab Food and Baemin with
respective percentages of 25.8% and 22.7%. Lastly, Loship has the lowest usage rate at
only 0.4%. This indicates that the Shopee Food application, being launched earlier than
other applications, is understandably the most chosen and widely used option.

5.2.3 Average customer spends on the application.
Based on the survey results from Figure 5.3, it is shown that the highest proportion of
customers, at 29.3%, spent less than 50,000 VND on food purchases through the
application. The next category, ranging from 50,000 to 70,000 VND, accounts for 28%,
followed by the range of 70,000 to 100,000 VND at 23.1%. Finally, the category of
spending over 100,000 VND represents 19.6%. This indicates that customers do not incur
high costs when ordering food through the application compared to purchasing directly
from stores because the applications offer various promotions and discounts to their
customers.
32

5.2.4 The time customers choose to place an order.
Based on the survey results from Figure 5.4, it is shown that the most preferred time for
customers to order food is in the evening, accounting for 55%. This is a reasonable time
choice as the evening is typically the most leisurely period and is suitable for customers
who are not too busy.
The next two preferred time periods are lunchtime and morning, accounting for 30% and
15% respectively. These two time periods have lower percentages because the majority
of customers are students, who are busy and may not have a high demand for ordering
food. They may prioritize eating at physical establishments instead..
33
urban traffic can be congested and time-consuming to commute from one place to
another. Ordering food through a delivery app helps customers avoid traffic congestion,
reduce travel time, and save energy. Additionally, restaurants or food establishments may
be crowded, and customers may have to wait in line to be served. Ordering through a
food delivery app allows customers to avoid waiting in line.
34
want to continue using the service. Furthermore, the service attitude of the delivery staff
is another important factor that affects the user experience. Friendly, professional, and
dedicated delivery personnel can create satisfaction and positive evaluations from users.
35
Based on a survey of 218 individuals, the results show that the average scores for
statements regarding different aspects range from 2.61 to 3.17. This indicates that the
statements relating to various aspects influence the satisfaction of customers with the
service quality of the online food delivery app from a range of disagreement to
agreement.

Source: Survey result SPSS, 2023
After running the first Cronbach's Alpha test, based on the results in Table 5.9, the
Cronbach's Alpha coefficients of the independent variables are all higher than 0.6, which
is consistent with the criteria set by Hair (1998). Additionally, the inter-item correlation
coefficients are all greater than 0.3, and the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient if an item is
removed is lower than the total Cronbach's Alpha. These results indicate that all 7 factors
are appropriate, no variables need to be eliminated, and the variables have sufficient
reliability for conducting Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and subsequent steps.
Specifically:
Reliability scale: Tested with 4 observed variables RL1, RL2, RL3, RL4, the
Cronbach's Alpha coefficient is 0.778, which meets the criteria for good reliability
(greater than 0.6). The inter-item correlation coefficients are all greater than 0.3 (ranging
from 0.446 to 0.680), satisfying the research requirements. Furthermore, the Cronbach's
Alpha coefficient if an item is removed is lower than the total Cronbach's Alpha,
indicating that all variables in the scale should be retained for further analysis.
Tangibles scale: Constructed with 6 observed variables TN1, TN2, TN3, TN4,
TN5, TN6, the total Cronbach's Alpha coefficient is 0.813 (greater than 0.8), indicating
satisfactory reliability. The inter-item correlation coefficients of the component variables
range from 0.448 to 0.681 (greater than 0.3), and the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient if an
item is removed is lower than the total Cronbach's Alpha. Therefore, all component
variables in this scale do not need to be eliminated and meet the requirements for testing
the scale.
Perceived Price scale: Comprising 5 observed variables PP1, PP2, PP3, PP4,
PP5, the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient is 0.844, which meets the criteria for good
reliability (greater than 0.8). The inter-item correlation coefficients range from 0.617 to
0.713 (all greater than 0.3), indicating suitability for the research requirements.
Additionally, the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient if an item is removed is lower than the
total Cronbach's Alpha, suggesting that all variables in the scale should be retained for
further analysis.
Promotion scale: Examined with 4 survey items labeled PO1, PO2, PO3, PO4,
the total Cronbach's Alpha coefficient is 0.808 (greater than 0.8), indicating satisfactory
reliability. The inter-item correlation coefficients are all greater than 0.3, ranging from
0.607 to 0.650. Moreover, the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient if an item is removed is
lower than the total Cronbach's Alpha, indicating that no variables in the component scale
need to be eliminated.
Empathy scale: Consisting of 4 observed variables EP1, EP2, EP3, EP4, the
Cronbach's Alpha coefficient is 0.819, meeting the criteria for good reliability (greater
42
than 0.8). The inter-item correlation coefficients range from 0.575 to 0.728 (all greater
than 0.3), indicating suitability for the research requirements. Additionally, the
Cronbach's Alpha coefficient if an item is removed is lower than the total Cronbach's
Alpha, suggesting that all variables in the scale should be retained for further analysis.
Responsiveness scale: Tested with 5 observed variables RS1, RS2, RS3, RS4,
RS5, the total Cronbach's Alpha coefficient is 0.844 (greater than 0.8), indicating
satisfactory reliability. The inter-item correlation coefficients are all greater than 0.3
(ranging from 0.585 to 0.701), and the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient if an item is
removed is lower than the total Cronbach's Alpha. Therefore, all component variables in
this scale do not need to be eliminated and meet the requirements for testing the scale.
Satisfaction scale: Comprising 5 observed variables SA1, SA2, SA3, SA4, SA5,
the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient is 0.874 (greater than 0.8), indicating satisfactory
reliability. The inter-item correlation coefficients range from 0.590 to 0.775 (all greater
than 0.3), indicating suitability for the research requirements. Additionally, the
Cronbach's Alpha coefficient if an item is removed is lower than the total Cronbach's

5.6.2.4 Regression Analysis
Based on the standardized ꞵ coefficient and the level of statistical significance of
each independent variable in table 4.16, we can confirm the relationship of the
independent variables with the dependent variable, the following result are obtained:
Hypothesis H1: Reliability has a positive impact on Satisfaction on service quality
of online food delivery applications in Can Tho city. Regression coefficient ꞵ1 = 0.259;
with Sig. = 0.000 < 0.05. We conclude that hypothesis H1 is accepted, meaning that
increasing these factor will increase the service quality of customer's satisfation.
Hypothesis H2: Tangibles has a positive impact on satisfaction with service quality
of online food delivery applications in Can Tho city. Regression coefficient ꞵ2 = 0.155;

increasing these factor will increase the service quality of customer's satisfation.
Hypothesis H3: Perceived Price has a positive impact on satisfaction with service quality
of online food delivery applications in Can Tho city. Regression coefficient ꞵ3 = 0.165;
with Sig. = 0.005 < 0.05. We conclude that hypothesis H3 is accepted, meaning that
increasing these factor will increase the service quality of customer's satisfation.
Hypothesis H4: Promotion has a positive impact on satisfaction with service quality
of online food delivery applications in Can Tho city. Regression coefficient ꞵ4 = 0.181;
with Sig. = 0.002 < 0.05. We conclude that hypothesis H4 is accepted, meaning that
increasing these factor will increase the service quality of customer's satisfation.
Hypothesis H5: Empathy has a positive impact on satisfaction with service quality
of online food delivery applications in Can Tho city. Regression coefficient ꞵ5 = 0.137;

authors, so this hypothesis is not statistically significant.
Hypothesis H6: Responsiveness has a positive impact on satisfaction service
quality of online food delivery applications in Can Tho city. Regression coefficient ꞵ6 =
0.184; with Sig. = 0.001 < 0.05. We conclude that hypothesis H6 is accepted, meaning
that increasing these factor will increase the service quality of customer's satisfation.
From the result of the regression analysis show that there are only 5 factors
affecting Satisfaction on the service quality of the online food delivery application at Can
Tho city, including: Reliability, Tangibles, Perceived Price, Promotion, Responsiveness.
In there:
50
The factor "Reliability" has a positive impact on the satisfaction with service
quality of online food delivery applications (due to the positive ꞵ coefficient). This result
shows the service quality of electronic applications in general and the service of online
food delivery applications in particular. When customers trust the ability to deliver goods
accurately and safely the first time, they will feel satisfied with the application's service.
Therefore, the higher Reliability customers have, the higher Satisfaction they will have
about the service quality of the online food delivery application.
The factor "Responsiveness" has a positive impact on the satisfaction with service
quality of online food delivery applications (due to the positive ꞵ coefficient). Customers
often want to receive their orders quickly and deliciously, which will make them feel
satisfied. Besides, the application needs to improve its responsiveness by optimizing the
delivery process, and shipping service providers, as well as collecting and responding to
customer feedback. will lead to higher customer satisfaction with the service quality of
the application.
The factor "Promotion" has a positive impact on the satisfaction with service
quality of online food delivery applications (due to the positive ꞵ coefficient). To
improve customer satisfaction, the application should also focus on providing attractive
promotions and incentives to customers, it can help to save cost and increasing their
satisfaction with the application.
The factor "Perceived Price" has a positive impact on the satisfaction with service
quality of online food delivery applications (due to the positive ꞵ coefficient). Customers
often tend to choose applications with reasonable prices and low delivery fees that suit
their budget. Therefore, affordable prices will help customers save costs and increase
satisfaction with the service.
The factor "Tangibles" has a positive impact on the satisfaction with service quality
of online food delivery applications (due to the positive ꞵ coefficient). When the
application's interface is good, it will help customers easily search, order and track orders
conveniently. These factors will come across as friendly, approachable, and trust for
customers, and encourage them to use the application more, leading to higher satisfaction
with the application. By improving tangibles, online food delivery applications can
increase customer trust, while enhance credibility and maintain relationship between app
and customer.

CHAPTER 6. MANAGEMENT IMLICATIONS AND
CONCLUSIONS
6.1 CONCLUSIONS
Based on the results of the research produced in the previous discussion, several
conclusions can be drawn. The overall objective of the study was determined, and the
results of data collection were analysed. The relationship between the variable of service
quality (reliability, tangibility, perceived price, promotion and responsiveness) and
customer satisfaction in online food delivery application at Can Tho City were
investigated in this report. There is one variable that was mentioned in the model but
during the research process proved to have a negative impact on satisfaction: empathy.
The research framework was developed using the literature that was evaluated.
Based on the theory and some research and evaluation model service quality
(SERVQUAL). The intuedeling factors includes (reliability, tangibility, perceived price,
promotion and responsiveness, empathy), the author performed this study with 218
respondents are customers who have used the service of an online food delivery
application in Can Tho city.
The study used methods through reliability test analysis Cronbach's Alpha, exploratory
factor analysis (EFA), ANOVA analysis and regression analysis to show a significant
relationship between variables. service quality (reliability, tangibility, perceived price,
promotion and responsiveness) and customer satisfaction with online food delivery
application in Can Tho city. The practical consequence is that service providers must
provide services of appropriate quality, such as paying attention to price and customer
care, providing feedback and responsive service, combined with the delivery is fast. In
addition, it is essential to maintain customer trust by providing customer comfort,
satisfaction and providing excellent and responsible service.
6.2 IMPLICATIONS
The author suggests some management implications based on the study's findings in an
effort to improve customer satisfaction with the service quality of online food delivery
applications in Can Tho City. The author offers a number of solutions pertaining to
factors that positively impact satisfaction, also listed in order from high to low:
Reliability, Responsiveness, Promotion, Perceived Price, Tangibles. These suggestions
are based on the findings of descriptive statistics and responses from respondents. One
52
variable, empathy, was included in the model but was found to have no effect on
satisfaction during the research process.
This shows the importance of paying attention to client satisfaction with the service
quality of online applications for both business people in general and the online
application industry in particular. The author suggests the following management
implications based on the analysis above:
Reliability: If you want to leave an impression and earn customers' trust, it is imperative
to honor the promise to deliver the correct goods on time the first time an order is placed.
Additionally, in order for consumers to monitor and schedule work as well as a
convenient time for items to be received, it is imperative that the shipping process be
updated accurately and continually.
Responsiveness: The delivery crew must be nimble when handling urgent orders; the
process of delivery must be swift, orderly, careful, and guarantee that the goods are safe;
the staff must be able to accommodate requests for modifying delivery times without
involving multiple parties.
Promotion and Perceived Price: need to coordinate with the delivery unit to build a
reasonable delivery cost, as well as diversify forms of incentives such as free or reduced
delivery costs and at the same time implement programs Promotions for groups of
students, office workers and large families to express gratitude to customers, attract and
maintain customer relationships. In particular, business units need to support and pay
costs incurred when delivering goods to their loyal customers.
Tangibles: The logo design of the application and the uniform of the food delivery
shipper must be consistent and eye-catching so that customers can easily remember and
distinguish it from other food delivery applications, fully equipped with tools as well as
Necessary means for delivery. More specifically, businesses need to encourage
employees to wear uniforms when delivering goods to show professionalism. Not only
that, training delivery staff to be agile and careful in each step of delivery is necessary.
53
Futhermore, this research being solely quantitative and has certain limitations
surrounding survey-based data collection, lack the comprehensive understanding that can
be gained through a qualitative research design.
Additionally, this study focuses on only these six independent variables. Specific as
reliability, tangibility, perceived price, promotion and responsiveness and simultaneous
effect on consumer satisfaction. And finally, this research only chooses Online Food
Delivery Application as its research subject.
6.3.2 Future research
From the limitations mentioned above, the author has made some suggestions for the
following research such as:
The future research is needed for other regions or general research across the entire
territory of Vietnam. This is intended to expand the scope of the study inorder to gain
better and comprehensive research.
Next, can be performed using alternative methodological techniques, such as a mixed-
method or qualitative approach. The reason is some respondents just choose any option
while answering the questionnaire. Because, face-to-face interviews typically generate
more accurate information for the researcher than questionnaires.
In addition, further researchers are advised to add other additional variables that can
influence consumer satisfaction to be even better, conduct research with a wider sample
of respondents to get more accurate results and conduct research using indicators and
references from different and up-to-date sources.
Finally, it is recommended for further research to be able to choose more diverse research
objects, such as other similar businesses or services.
