| Summary: | Consumers' lack of trust in the private label brand is thought to be the
root cause of private label's failure in developing markets, particularly in
Asia. To improve their market share in developing markets, retailers must
address private-label brand trust issues and utilize private-label
characteristics to convince non-users to adopt their products. However, brand
trust, which is understood to play a significant impact in innovation adoption,
is not taken into account in the Diffusion-of-Innovation literature. To fill
this gap, this study aims to apply a trust-based commendation to supplement
'brand trust' as the innovation characteristic and validate an adoption model
for the private label that consists of all its important innovation
characteristics. Brand trust is also expected to play a determinant role in the
innovation characteristic model as an affective-based innovation characteristic.
As a result, this study has empirically proven brand trust ( = 0.364) to be
the most influential characteristic of adoption intention compared to relative
advantage ( = 0.214), compatibility ( = 0.214), and perceived risk ( =
-0.167). The empirical support of brand trust as the affective mediator
contributes to justifying the significance of affective-based characteristics
to the adoption of innovation. |
