Green Marketing and Consumer Purchase Intention: A study from Pakistani Consumer Market

Abstract

In the twenty-first century, environmental concerns are of vital importance and the success of green products is crucial for the sustainability of humankind and the planet. However, both environmental consciousness and customer interest in environmentally friendly products are growing. The human race today sustains more artificial products rather than natural ones. This paper is particularly for green products consumptions and the consumer’s intention to purchase for the population of Pakistan. This study employs a descriptive analytical research approach and utilizes survey questionnaires that were taken in for further results to know more about consumer's intentions when buying or consuming green products. The consumers’ intentions for green products are primarily established due to green awareness, the value of green perception, the trust they perceive, their responsibility towards the environment, and the risks that come with all the situations. The outcomes gathered showed us that more the awareness the more consumers' intention toward green purchases. Moreover, there is also trust and ambition toward the Green Perceived Value. In addition, the study also shows us a positive relation between green perceived trust and environmental responsibility towards green perceived intention while the perceived green risk negatively impacts the consumers' purchase intention. This study can provide good insight for marketers targeting green consumers together with the necessity for companies to offer a variety of green products.
