Abstract

With the rapid development of globalization and digitalization, In today's globalised and digitalised world, market competition is intensifying. It is crucial for the production and sales divisions of a company to study how branding and packaging affect consumer purchasing behaviours. Consumers make purchasing decisions based on a comprehensive assessment of a company's products, services, brands, and marketing strategies. Therefore, gaining a deeper understanding of consumer purchasing behaviours can help companies develop effective market strategies and improve their competitiveness. Therefore, an extensive understanding of consumer buying behaviours is crucial for businesses to develop efficient marketing strategies and improve market competitiveness. In this context, this study establishes a hypothesis on the impact of branding and packaging on customer purchase behaviours by examining the current literature. The hypothesis is then tested by a questionnaire survey and data analysis. This study findings indicate that product branding and packaging exert a positive and statistically significant influence on consumer purchasing behaviours to different extents. Additionally, branding and packaging, when consistent with each other, interact synergistically to collectively shape consumers' product choices and behaviours. This study examines the impact of brand and packaging on consumer purchasing habits by analysing existing literature and case studies. It also suggests solutions to strengthen the influence of brand and packaging and enhance the alignment between them. It also suggests strategies to augment the impact of branding and packaging, as well as the coherence of branding and packaging. This provides enterprises with guidance on how to enhance the influence of branding and packaging, and ultimately improve the market competitiveness of their products. These recommendations are applicable in both theoretical and practical contexts.
