Abstract

The integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles has significantly reshaped consumer behavior, particularly in the realm of sustainable consumption. Organic food, emblematic of ESG-aligned products, has garnered increasing consumer preference due to its eco-friendly production methods, health consciousness, and alignment with social values. This study leverages a comprehensive data set from HKTVmall, Hong Kong's preeminent e-commerce platform, encompassing user purchase activities from December 1, 2022, to February 28, 2023. It investigates the multifaceted determinants of organic food purchasing behavior through a trilateral lens: consumer demographics, product features, and temporal dynamics. This study delineates the nuanced impact of consumer attributes on ESG product acquisition, and a multivariate regression model is constructed, synthesizing the empirical insights garnered from the data set. This model offers a robust framework for strategic planning and promotional initiatives aimed at enhancing the market penetration of ESG-compliant products.
