Abstract

This study aimed to identify the factors that influence the buying behavior of local brands by the homoaffective consumer. This research has a descriptive quantitative character and uses non-probabilistic sampling. We collected data through an online survey. The data were analyzed using statistical software, enabling descriptive analyzes and the relationship between the variables. The results show that, although homoaffective consumers have a consumption behavior aimed at global brands, there is an intention to consume a local brand due to a socially responsible consumption posture, through which social aspects become more relevant and decisive, time of purchase.
