In this article we are interested in the links
between the dimensions of perceived quality, satisfaction
and loyalty in the context of taxi-brousses. In addition,
we investigate the moderating role of price on the link
between satisfaction and loyalty. After a clarification of
the concepts of perceived quality, satisfaction, fair price
and loyalty, we propose a research model. The model is
constructed on the assumption that in the bush cab
transport context, perceived quality has an impact on
satisfaction and loyalty. Moreover, fairness of price
moderates the relationship between satisfaction and
loyalty. Data from a survey of 112 passengers from
Antananarivo-Antsirabe destination were processed
using structural equations. The results partly confirm
our hypotheses, in particular the influence of quality
dimensions on loyalty and the moderating role of fair
pricing. We conclude our article on the limitations of the
study and the prospects for future research.
