As part of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainable products, many big players in the industry have now reduced plastic through the design, manufacturing and packaging of products and their ultimate disposal. This paper investigates the direct and indirect relationships between awareness, trust, and brand preference on purchase intention in green marketing. Based on a review of the literature, a series of hypotheses are derived and tested using regression analysis. The research employs an online survey-based method to test a theoretically grounded set of proposed hypotheses. The data were collected from 348 young adults living in Jakarta, Indonesia. The results show that green awareness does not influence purchase intention directly. On the other hand, the indirect effect of green awareness through green brand preference on purchase intention was greater compared with the indirect effect through green trust. Therefore, this study draws attention to the importance of green brand preference and green trust on purchase intention. Given that the consumption of organic products has the potential to elicit awareness, trust, and preference of eco-friendly consumers, these findings have significant management implications for corporate managers when considering the production of organic commodities.
