Could green-marketing be a sustainable competitive advantage for retailers within South Africa?Allen, Tracey 18 March 2010 (has links)
Global consumer spending trends indicated a growth in the popularity and support of green-marketing in many retailers within the formal sector with the exception of South Africa (SA). The research contained in this study therefore sets out to gain understanding of whether retailers within the formal sector of SA thought green-marketing could create a sustainable competitive advantage for them. Rigorous and methodologically sound exploratory case study research was conducted where the literature reviewed provided no answers, with the result of research questions. The design of this study was multiple unit of case analysis within an embedded design. The context was retailers within SA formal sector; the case was Massmart with two embedded units of analysis being Builders Warehouse (1) and Makro (2). The results were then used to address the primary research objective, to discover if green-marketing could be a sustainable competitive advantage for retailers within SA. Findings of this study suggested that the SA retail market would evolve towards pursuing a green-marketing strategy, firstly to achieve a short-term competitive advantage; however the competitive advantage would not be sustainable due to green-marketing becoming the norm and not the exception. Furthermore, in the long-term, retailers who do not engage in a green-marketing strategy will not be sustainable within SA. / Dissertation (MBA)--University of Pretoria, 2010. / Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) / unrestricted

This thesis presents the problem surrounding green marketing, which involves the lack of knowledge of green consumption by the consumer, and the threats of green washing from companies who present green marketing without achieving the green marketing criteria. An implementation of the green marketing theories in the cases of Patagonia and Klättermusen: green marketing five “I’s” and the green marketing three “C’s” was done in order to understand if the two companies fit the green marketing profile.

Exploring the effectiveness of green marketing strategies in hospitalityKim, Woo-Hyuk January 1900 (has links)
Doctor of Philosophy / Department of Hospitality Management / Kristin Malek / Kevin R. Roberts / This experimental study explores how different marketing tactics, such as advertising types, message appeals, and social norms, influence attitude toward the advertisement, attitude toward the convention, and pro-environmental intention. This research has three objectives: to determine how message types in green advertising affect attitudes and intentions, to examine how message appeals in green advertising affect attitudes and intentions, and to investigate the role of social norms in green advertising in the formation of those attitudes and intentions.
To examine the effects of message type, message appeals, and social norms on convention attendees’ behavioral intentions toward such a convention, a 2 (message type) x 2 (message appeals) x 2 (social norms) experimental design was adopted. This was chosen given its recognized ability to clarify associative relationships by enhancing internal validity and the robustness of findings. Several hypotheses were tested with a sample of convention attendees from the United States using Amazon Mechanical Turk.
Specific findings from this study include that fact that green marketing messages combining verbal claims and visual claims were significantly more effective than messages using verbal claims only. Additionally, messages with emotional appeals were significantly more effective than ones with rational appeals and messages with injunctive norm claims were significantly more effective than ones with descriptive norm claims.
As the first study of its kind to empirically investigate the use of green advertising in the context of conventions, this research involved several novel applications of various theories and a conceptual model. This study utilizes research from several disciplines whose examples can inform green marketing strategies in the convention industry. At the end, the researcher discusses the possible implications of its own findings for the convention industry in addition to its segment in the broader hospitality industry in the United States.

E-mobility - gå mot strömmen : En studie om elbilen som fenomen och dess förutsättningar i framtiden.Blom, Hedvig, Lopar, Nikolina January 2015 (has links)
Syfte & forskningsfråga: Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att utreda och analysera hur olika faktorer kan påverka efterfrågan och försäljning av elbilen. Syftet är också att identifiera förutsättningar för elbilens framtid och betydelse inom bilsektorn. Uppsatsens forskningsfråga formulerades utifrån uppsatsens syfte och frågan är följande: Vad krävs för att elbilen ska nå ut till en bredare målgrupp i framtiden? Metod: Vår uppsats är baserad på en kvalitativ forskningsmetod för att vi ska få en djupare förståelse kring det valda forskningsområdet. Vi har strävat efter en induktiv ansats i studien men vi är medvetna om att vi har deduktiva inslag, vilket har bidragit till att uppsatsen har en abduktiv karaktär. Vi valde att ta med respondenter med olika positioner från både bilföretag, bilmagasin samt en intresseorganisation för att få en mer bredare syn på forskningsområdet. Sammanlagt har vi sju respondenter samt två fokusgrupper som har bidragit med information till det empiriska materialet i uppsatsen. Slutsatser: I vårt avslutande kapitel besvarar vi våra delsyften som vi har i studien samt vår forskningsfråga om vad som krävs för att elbilen ska nå ut till en bredare marknad i framtiden. Vi anser att elbilen har goda förutsättningar till att utvecklas ännu mer samt spridas till fler kundsegment. Vi har genom vår teoretiska och empiriska analys identifierat att statliga incitament och förmåner, en ökad medvetenhet bland kunderna samt en sänkning av priset är de främsta faktorerna som kan bidra till en utökning av elbilen på marknaden.
