Abstract

This research is on the topic of green marketing, Virtual Reality (VR) and consumer behaviour. It examines the effect of VR on influencing consumer behaviour regarding plastic fast-moving consumer goods. For this, an experiment was conducted by comparing the phone condition with the head-mounted-display (HMD) condition. It shows that using an HMD generates a higher level of emotional engagement, which increases purchase intention. The results of this study are relevant because it highlights the opportunities to use VR as a marketing channel to reduce plastic use.
