Abstract

This study investigated how corporate social responsibility, adherence to social missions, organisation–public relationships outcomes, and corporate reputation influence the purchase intentions for social enterprises’ products. Through a survey of Taiwanese consumers (N = 507) in online channels, results suggested that corporate social responsibility and adherence to social missions indirectly influenced purchase intentions through organisation − public relationships and corporate reputation. However, the direct effect of corporate social responsibility on organisation–public relationship outcomes was nonsignificant. Adherence to social missions acted as a more important factor than corporate social responsibility in generating purchase intentions, indicating the importance of social missions in the social enterprise context.
