Design/Methodology/Approach: The responses were collected on a structured questionnaire through a consumer survey. The data was then analysed through PLS-SEM.

Further, the mediating role of perceived quality was observed in explaining the consumer preference towards foreign and domestic brands.
Practical Implications: Finally, the study concludes by providing implications for marketing scholars and managers of global and local brands.
