RFID technology and its Applicability to CCH Supply Chain processes
This project concerns a technical and economic feasibility study of RFID-enabled digital transformation of the CCH warehouse/ production plant processes at Schimatari area. The ultimate purpose was to perform cost versus benefit evaluation of alternative RFID implementation scenarios of the CCH warehouse processes. The main KPI was process time and the subsequent labor cost per process. The proposed alternative RFID scenarios were first evaluated from a technical perspective with real on-site technical experiments. For the cost-benefit assessment, we utilized established investment evaluation techniques and we calculated the Net Present Value, the Return on Investment and the Payback Period per RFID implementation scenario.

Antecedents and Consequences of Shopper-Store Emotional Attachment: The Moderating Role of Style Attachments
This research project investigates the shopper-store emotional attachment phenomenon in the context of grocery retailing. Employing Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) techniques a model of emotional link antecedents (e.g. place attachment, brand trust, social and inner-self brand expressiveness, brand love, brand likeability, enjoyment) and consequences (e.g. word of mouth, propensity to leave, loyalty intentions, sales) is developed and empirically tested. Furthermore, it is also investigated whether consumer style attachments multiply/moderate the model’s links.

Measuring the impact of e-banking on consumers lifestyle
The aim of the project was to measure the benefit for the consumers from the use of the e-banking services of Piraeus bank (web, ATM, mobile, phone, easypay machines), in both quantitative and qualitative terms. In addition the project estimated the environmental impact (CO2 emission) of the use of e – banking services compared to the traditional way of conducting banking transactions in physical stores.
Different transaction scenarios were developed and empirical data were collected and fed an Activity-based costing model for the quantification of the transaction costs. In addition an extended survey was performed with more than 800 Piraeus bank customers in order to identify the main factors that affect consumers’ intention to use e-banking services.
