Abstract

This study explores the impact of environmental concern, green marketing, and brand image on consumers’ willingness to purchase green products. The research employed a mixed-method approach and surveyed 339 consumers. The results indicate that environmental concern positively influences green marketing. Consumers who are environmentally conscious exhibit a more positive response to companies’ green marketing efforts. Green marketing directly enhances consumers’ willingness to purchase green products and partially mediates the influence of environmental concern on purchase intention. Environmental concern has a positive impact on brand image, and a reinforced brand image further enhances consumers’ willingness to purchase green products, playing a partial mediating role between environmental concern and green purchase intention. There is a significant correlation between green marketing and brand image, suggesting that they can mutually reinforce each other in corporate strategies, collectively driving consumers to make more environmentally friendly purchasing choices. These findings offer new insights into understanding consumers’ green purchasing behavior and provide empirical support for how businesses can enhance market competitiveness and green innovation capabilities through green strategies. This study extends the theoretical framework of environmental marketing and consumer behavior research and offers practical guidance for practitioners.
