Resumen

In order to obtain the characteristics of the wine buying decision process in Temuco, primary information was generated from a sample representative of sex composition and age groups of the 9th Region. The findings show that the decision process of wine purchase follows the characteristics of convenience goods. Using multivariate conjoint analysis it is possible to determine that price is the main factor in the purchase decision of a specific wine and a positive relationship between price and quality. In this market, occasional wine consumers predominate mainly in special events. Among the consumers a strong brand loyalty was not evidenced. Con el propósito de caracterizar el proceso de decisión de compra de vinos en la ciudad de Temuco y determinar la importancia del tipo de vino (tinto o blanco), el tipo de envase y variaciones en los niveles de precio en este proceso, se generó información primaria al respecto a partir de una muestra representativa de la composición en sexos y grupos de edades de la población de la IX Región de La Araucanía. Se obtuvo que el proceso de decisión de compra de vino se ajusta a las características de los bienes de conveniencia. La elección del vino es efectuada preferentemente por el jefe de hogar, evaluando pocas alternativas para ello, siendo marcada la preferencia por cepas de vino tinto. Utilizando la técnica multivariante de análisis conjunto, se determinó que el factor con más peso para decidir la compra de un vino, elegido previamente el tipo, corresponde al precio existiendo una asociación positiva entre un mayor nivel de este factor y una mejor calidad del producto. Predominan los consumidores ocasionales de vino asociados a eventos especiales y una tendencia a elegir vinos de mayor calidad. Existe una proporción considerable de consumidores que no experimenta lealtad hacia marcas específicas, hecho que facilita la entrada de nuevos productos al mercado.
