  • Abstract
    In this paper, the gray preference analysis of service brand extension is proposed based on A&K model, and a famous Chinese brand suning is experimented. The experimental evidence shows that complementary is a salient clue to evaluate extensions in a services context, the process quality is more important than functional quality, and brand extension strategies could probably be used more successfully for those with higher service quality.
