Understanding the Role of Ecolabels in Driving Sustainability Awareness and Changing Buying Behaviour : A Qualitative Research on the Underlying Motives Influencing Decision Making Among Consumers in the Swedish Food IndustryKnutsson, Ebba, Malmberg, Lisen, Kilbrandt, Elin January 2024 (has links)
Abstract Background: During the last decades, environmental concerns have increased significantly, and companies have been forced to adapt their business to meet the demands of today’s consumers. Green marketing has become an effecting differentiating factor as well as a positive contributor for companies. Ecolabels operates as a tool to promote and inform consumers about the level of sustainability of the product, where the symbol will guarantee a certain criteria, feature, or quality. Ecolabel products enable consumers to make environmentally conscious decisions through their buying behaviour, thereby contributing to a more sustainable world. Purpose: The purpose of this report is to investigate how ecolabels influence change in buying behaviour and sustainability awareness. Furthermore, to provide information regarding the consumers' view on these products and how their attitude, behaviour and awareness is affected. Method: This reports data collection is conducted through three focus groups interviews with consumers as well as two personal interviews with store managers from one of Sweden's biggest food chains. Furthermore, this qualitative research uses an inductive approach. Starting with existing theories, followed by a thematic analysis where collected data has been analysed to lastly explore specific themes related to ecolabels. Conclusion: The individual’s knowledge around ecolabels is a barrier to embracing them, and the change in consumer buying behaviour seems to be depending on that factor. The findings suggest that consumers are in general unaware of the benefits and meaning of ecolabels, but eager to attain knowledge if more approachable. Consumers and stores together need to cooperate in increasing consciousness for ecolabels to play a bigger role in changing consumer buying behaviour to greener.

Miljömärkningar inom textilbranschen : Ur konsumentens perspektiv / Eco-labels in the textile industry : From the consumer's perspectiveStegervall, Sara, Svennberg, Lina January 2019 (has links)
Denna studie syftar till att undersöka konsumenters kännedom och uppfattningar om miljömärkningar i textilbranschen samt om de ger avtryck i deras konsumtion. Studien har genomförts med en kvantitativ ansats genom en enkätundersökning som är utformad utifrån en kvalitativ förstudie. Tidigare litteratur menar att standardiserade miljömärken är mycket bättre än butikskedjornas egna miljömärkningar då de är baserade på en oberoende organisations kriterier. Utifrån denna studie kan det dras en slutsats om att de standardiserade miljömärkningarna är mer igenkända och pålitliga än butikskedjornas egna, speciellt “Svanen” och “Bra Miljöval”. Tidigare litteratur har visat att kunskap är en viktig bidragande faktor för att minska miljöpåverkan vid konsumtion av plagg. Konsumenter vill göra rationella och medvetna hållbara val men brist på information och kunskap kring olika miljömärken gör det svårt. Denna avsaknad på medvetenhet och kunskap beror till stor del på begränsningar i marknadsföringsstrategier och så kallad “branding” av miljövänliga märkningar. Studien bekräftar även tidigare forskning som menar att den största anledning till att konsumenter inte köper hållbara plagg är på grund av bristande kunskap inom området. / This study aims to identify consumers knowledge and perceptions towards eco-labels in the textile industry and if they give an impression on their consumption. The study has been conducted with a quantitative approach through a questionnaire survey that is designed on the basis of a qualitative study. Earlier literature shows that standardized eco-labels are much better than stores own eco-labels since they are based on the criteria of an independent organization. Based on this study, a conclusion can be drawn that the standardized eco-labels are more recognized and reliable than store chains own, especially "Svanen" and "Bra Miljöval". Previous literature has shown that knowledge is an important contributing factor in reducing the environmental impact when consuming garments. Consumers want to make rational and conscious sustainable choices, but lack of information and knowledge about different eco-labels makes it difficult. This lack of awareness and knowledge is largely due to limitations in marketing strategies and branding of environmentally friendly labels. The study also confirms previous research that show that the biggest reason why consumers do not buy sustainable garments is because of lack of knowledge about its impact on the environment.
