Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate how sustainability can be used in social media marketing to create trust and commitment in B2B relationships with all stakeholders. Method: Multiple case study with an abductive approach, data collection through nine semi-structured interviews and several sources of secondary data. Conclusion: Sustainability in SMM is used to create a better brand image and contributes to finding new business partners while also improving existing relationships with various stakeholders. However, in a B2B context, the offline activities of physical meetings are still of high importance for creating trust and commitment.
