Abstract:
The objective of this study was to evaluate whether package marketing can add value to logistic delivery and to discuss how package marketing influences customers’ purchase intention. A survey of 184 consumers in Taiwan was carried out using structural equation modelling. A direct positive relationship between attitude toward package marketing and attitude toward advertising was identified. Specifically, it was confirmed that attitude toward advertising plays a mediating role between attitude toward package marketing and purchase intention. Overall, when companies attach marketing advertisements in a package in the future, the key is to include advertisement contents that could result in consumers’ positive attitude and influence their purchase intention.
