“…Moreover, because of lacking the previous empirical research on what brand authenticity is and its effects, the brand authenticity scale was empirically developed (Tran, 2018). Moreover, the six dimensions represent the most comprehensive understanding of brand authenticity.…”

“…Three broad goals are identified (control, connection, and virtue) that drive the systematic selection and evaluation of different consumption experiences as being inauthentic. Tran and Keng (2018) used qualitative and empirical methods to identify the six key dimensions of brand authenticity and develop a brand authenticity scale. As a result, a six-dimensional scale containing seventeen items was developed representing distinctive dimensions of brand authenticity: virtue, connection, realism, aesthetics, control, and originality.…”

This study examines the relationship between brand authenticity, brand equity, and customer satisfaction. A total of 263 participants participated in this study. Participants rated a set of three brands: Apple, Starbuck, and Nike. Each participant rated the extent to which the items described his or her authenticity with the brands listed, the equity of the brands listed, and feelings of satisfaction toward the brands. This study employs confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling. The results indicate that 1) brand authenticity positively relates to brand equity, and 2) brand authenticity effects to customer satisfaction. The findings suggest that marketers can use the brand authenticity for assessment, planning, and tracking purposes to understand the authenticity of their brands for their customers. Products of authenticity brand are better liked, viewed as higher quality, offer greater value and are more likely to be purchased than less authenticity brand. They can command a significant price premium. The findings provide useful support and evidence for brand management, as well as companies in other developing countries, to engage more in brand practices as a core element of their strategic and brand management. This means that managers should work to increase perceptions of authenticity for their offerings.

“…Traceability and identification are crucial for marketing food products. When food goods are segregated via process and/or content attributes of credence, auditing, recordkeeping, and validation are acknowledged as important aspects of their confirmation for the "preservation of culture" and the "management of authenticity" (Tran & Keng, 2018).…”

“…Cultural iconic branding of the MMI can deliver unexpected cultural value, as this branding applies the nation's joint concerns and wishes. Brands tend to be culturally iconic when they carry within them identity myths which are no more than simple fictions that highlight cultural anxieties from the distance found in fictional worlds rather than the real-world problems that consumers face in their day-to-day lives (Tran & Keng, 2018). The issues and concerns raised by these myths are simply imaginative and not the actual image of the targeted demographics' aspired identities (Sarker et al, 2020b).…”

The purpose of this paper is to explore the core forces and drivers of the creative transformation of a traditional industry through the assessment of the mares’ milk industry (MMI). Using an exploratory single case study, this research reveals the main driver mechanisms and challenges of the creative transformation of a traditional industry using the case of the MMI in Kazakhstan. Grounded theory, along with in‐depth interviews of 36 MMI business staff in Kazakhstan, has been used in this study. The research identifies the following four key driving factors for transforming a commodity‐based traditional industry into a cultural creative emerging industry: National demand, ingenuity and creativity, affordance (support), and actors (attitudes, skills, and characteristics). This study also explores challenges, such as administrative negligence, the threat of losing authenticity, poor industry cooperation, and cultural branding. A sustainable transformation into a creative MMI requires the government to give its full attention to implementing existing‐related policies, emphasizing the role of authenticity, stressing the importance of industry cooperation, and promoting iconic branding. The study findings will help policy makers, administrators, and related stakeholders to understand the transformation of the MMI when developing related policy, strategy, and sustainable development. The findings can also serve as guidelines for other traditional agricultural sectors that are undergoing transformation into creative industries.
