Abstract

Brand value propositions are receiving increased research attention. However, two key approaches to supporting the brand value proposition—certification and authentication—have had minimal academic study. We respond to this research need by defining the key concepts of certification and authentication and examining their effects in the context of branding. An agenda for future research is proposed and implications for practice are suggested.
