Consumers' experiences of cold chain food packaging: A qualitative study among women in South Africa

Abstract: Food packaging defines a product's uniqueness and strengthens consumers' relationship with a brand, in this way offering functional and experiential benefits. Although cold chain food is predicted to become even more important to consumers, consumers' experiences of the packaging of these products have been neglected in the literature. Thus, this exploratory study investigated these experiences of female participants in Potchefstroom, South Africa, using semi-structured interviews and a projective technique as… Show more

“…Previous studies on the topic of consumers' requirements regarding packaging were selective and concerned only lifestyle aspects. It was covered in studies by Estiri, Hasangholi, Yazdani, Nejad, and Rayer (2010), Mueller andSzolnoki (2010), Venter et al (2011), van der Merwe et al (2013), Carrillo, Fiszman, Lähteenmäki, and Varela (2014), Cholewa-Wójcik (2015); Varela (2015), Gomez, Martın-Consuegra &Molina (2015), added value aspects are presented in studies by Butkevivience, Stavinskiene, Rutelione, 2008;Ares & Deliza, 2010;Ahmadi, Bahrami, Ahani (2013). The meaning of safety aspects of packaging was proven by (Wilcock, Pun, Khanona, Aung, 2004;Kawecka, 2014b;Baiardi, Puglisi, Scabroosetti, 2016).…”

“…À cet effet, l'achat de l'entreprise d'un emballage optimal contribue à améliorer non seulement l'efficacité de ses opérations logistiques mais aussi à réduire son empreinte environnementale (Garcia‐Arca et al, 2014), ce qui est attribuable à l'achat d'une combinaison optimale « produit‐emballage » (Grönman et al, 2013). C'est pourquoi, dans un contexte de plus en plus compétitif, l'achat des emballages s'avère une décision organisationnelle cruciale qui exige une réflexion approfondie (Ragaert et al, 2004; Vam Der Merwe et al, 2013; Grönman et al, 2013).…”

“…Toutefois, le comportement d'achat organisationnel de ces derniers reste encore très peu exploré. Les études existantes soutiennent que l'achat des emballages est une décision multicritère complexe (Vam Der Merwe et al, 2013), car les décideurs sont amenés à concilier plusieurs attributs conflictuels pour parvenir à une combinaison optimale « produit‐emballage » (Prendergast et Pitt, 1996; Rundh, 2009). Cette analyse multicritère s'avère plus complexe dans le contexte des aliments périssables vu leur fragilité et leur durée de conservation limitée (Ragaert et al, 2004).…”
