The Role of Perceived Authenticity in Increasing Green Purchase Intention: Systematic Literature Review

Abstract

This study explored the relationship between perceived authenticity and consumer purchase intention in green products, especially in the context of increasing awareness of sustainability among consumers. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this research explores the dynamics of the relationship between perceived authenticity and consumer intention for green products. Analysis of key findings reveals that perceived authenticity is not just a concept but is a key element that forms the basis of consumer trust in brands and products. The results of this study highlight the important role of perceived authenticity as the main instrument in forming positive relationships between brands, consumers and green products. The implications are particularly relevant in a marketing context, where strategies that establish and maintain product authenticity are crucial. This study provides in-depth insight into how perceived authenticity not only influences consumers' perceptions of the sustainability of green products but also directly impacts purchase intention. This study also emphasizes the importance of marketing strategies that build and maintain perceived authenticity. This strategy not only helps brands win consumer trust but also becomes a catalyst in driving change towards more sustainable and responsible consumption. Thus, this study significantly contributes to business practitioners and academics in understanding the dynamics of the green product market amidst the shift in consumer values towards sustainability.
