The influence of brand innovativeness on consumer purchase intentions towards domestic global brands in emerging markets: Evidence from China

Abstract

There has been a growing trend of supporting domestic brands following the COVID‐19 pandemic, and some brands from emerging markets have accelerated their internationalisation over the past few years. This article investigates the influence of brand innovativeness on Chinese consumers' brand attitudes and purchase intentions towards domestic global brands in the digital device industry. A total of 220 undergraduate students from China took part in the survey. Confirmatory factor analysis and path analysis were used to test the hypotheses using structural equation modelling. The results showed that brand innovativeness stimulates purchase intentions through the mediation of perceived brand globalness (PBG) and perceived brand localness (PBL). In addition, consumer ethnocentrism moderates the relationship between PBL and brand attitudes. The theoretical and practical implications are discussed herein.
