CSR for the dairy- and clothing industry : A quantitative study on consumer opinions about CSR in two different industries
Implementation av ett CSR-engagemang innebĂ€r stora ekonomiska pĂ„frestelser pĂ„ ett företag vilket kan visa sig vara problematiskt för företag dĂ„ konsumenterna uppger att de Ă€r villiga att övervĂ€ga CSR men nĂ€r det gĂ€ller verklig konsumtion Ă€r det fĂ„ konsumenter som tar hĂ€nsyn till CSR. Syftet med denna uppsats Ă€r dĂ€rför att kartlĂ€gga Ă„sikterna om företags CSR inom mejeribranschen och klĂ€dbranschen hos konsumenter i Stockholm lĂ€n. FrĂ„gestĂ€llningarna för denna uppsats Ă€r âanser svenska konsumenter att det Ă€r viktigt med CSR inom mejeribranschen respektive klĂ€dbranschen??â samt âvilka CSR-faktorer anser svenska konsumenter pĂ„verkar deras köp mest inom mejeribranschen respektive klĂ€dbranschen?â. Arbetet i studien Ă€r grundat i en kvantitativ undersökning dĂ€r 307 respondenter deltog i en enkĂ€tundersökning. För att studera resultatet av enkĂ€tundersökningen har arbetet utgĂ„tt ifrĂ„n teorier inom CSR och konsumentbeteende. UtifrĂ„n resultatet kan man konstatera att respondenterna anser att det Ă€r viktigare med CSR inom mejeribranschen Ă€n inom klĂ€dbranschen samt att de faktorer som respondenterna anser pĂ„verkar deras köp mest Ă€r smak eller utseende, beroende pĂ„ branschen. En slutsats som kan dras utifrĂ„n resultatet Ă€r att CSR Ă€r viktigare för kvinnor Ă€n för mĂ€n inom respektive bransch, samt att konsumenterna inte anser att CSR faktorer Ă€r det som har störst pĂ„verkan pĂ„ deras köp inom respektive bransch. Slutligen kan slutsatsen om att respondenterna anser att CSR faktorer har större pĂ„verkan pĂ„ deras köp inom mejeribranschen Ă€n i klĂ€dbranschen, bortsett frĂ„n arbetsförhĂ„llanden som anses pĂ„verka mer inom klĂ€dbranschen.Implementation of a CSR engagement involves major financial strain on a company, which may prove problematic for companies, as consumers state that they are willing to consider CSR, but when it comes to real consumption, few consumers take CSR into consideration. The purpose of this paper is therefore to map out the opinions about the corporate social responsibility regarding the industries of both clothing and dairy products for the consumers in the Stockholm area. The research questions that were examined was âdo Swedish consumers consider CSR to be important in the dairy industry and the clothing industry?â and "which CSR factors do Swedish consumers consider to affect their purchases most in the dairy industry and the clothing industry?". The research has a quantitative base with a survey with 307 respondents. In order to study the result of the survey the use of different theories has been implemented for example CSR, Green Marketing and Consumer Behaviour. The result shows that the respondents think that CSR is more important in the dairy industry than the clothing industry, as well as the most important factor in their purchase is the taste or looks of the product, depending on the industry. Another conclusion is that CSR is more important for women than for men in both industries. Furthermore, consumers don't think that CSR factors is what has the greatest impact on their purchases within each industry. Lastly is that the respondents consider CSR factors to have a greater impact on their purchases in the dairy industry than in the clothing industry, apart from working conditions which are considered to affect more in the clothing industry
