The research object of this study focuses on Taiwanese consumers who have the purchase experience of information and electronics products in Taiwan.

Hence, this study suggests that companies must increase their green brand personality in order to enhance their consumers’ green purchase intentions. In addition, this study finds out that green brand associations and green brand attitude mediate the positive relationship between green brand personality and green purchase intentions. The results also demonstrate that green brand personality positively relate to green brand associations and green brand attitude which would positively affect green purchase intentions.
