Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk melihat sikap responden terhadap Starbucks sebagai suatu green brand yang berujung kepada perilaku loyalitas. Starbucks dijadikan studi kasus utama penelitian ini dengan alasan karena Starbucks merupakan salah satu brand coffeeshop yang paling gencar melakukan green movement. Penelitian ini menargetkan konsumen Starbucks yang tergolong loyal dan berdomisili di daerah Jabodetabek, dengan jumlah responden mencapai 391 orang. Penelitian ini menggunakan berbagai macam variabel untuk diteliti, seperti utilitarian environmental benefits, warm glow benefits, dan green transparency sebagai tiga variabel independen utama yang memiliki pengaruh terhadap green perceived value konsumen, yang kemudian berdampak pada self-brand connection dan berujung pada brand loyalty. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah structural equation modeling agar dapat mengukur pengaruh hubungan variabel penelitian secara simultan. Setelah penelitian dilakukan, hasil menunjukkan bahwa ketiga variabel independen utama mempengaruhi green perceived value yang juga berperan sebagai mediasi antara ketiga variabel independen dengan brand loyalty melalui variabel self-brand connection.

The purpose of this study is to observe how respondent rsquo s attitude towards Starbucks as a green brand, and how it later influences their loyalty behaviors.
