Abstract

This study explores and analyses the factors affecting consumers’ buying behaviour towards organic food at a mini supermarket, thereby proposing some implications. Partial least squares structural equation modelling was used to test the study hypotheses. Data was collected by surveying customers who had experienced consuming organic products at the mini supermarket. The testing outcomes demonstrated that seven of the eight proposed hypotheses were supported. Price sensitiveness is the only variable in the model that showed a positive link to consumers’ purchase behaviour but no significant relationship with consumers’ purchase intention. From a practical perspective, the study suggests several important implications for marketers and mini supermarket owners to encourage their customers to buy organic food. This study provides important insights into the widely recognized yet little-researched topic of consumers’ behaviour towards organic food.
