Purpose This paper aims to examine under what conditions consumers develop emotional attachment toward authentic brands. It proposes that authentic brands’ ability to evoke attachment is contingent upon situational (i.e. need to belong and need to express the authentic self) and consumer individual difference variables (i.e. brand engagement in self-concept [BESC] and personal authenticity). Design/methodology/approach Two experiments empirically test the effects of brand authenticity on emotional brand attachment. Experiment 1 considers the moderating roles of social exclusion and BESC. Experiment 2 examines the moderating roles of situationally induced feelings of self-inauthenticity and enduring personal authenticity. Findings Consumers with a high level of BESC show greater emotional brand attachment to authentic (versus less authentic) brands when they feel socially excluded. Consumers with a high level of enduring personal authenticity show greater emotional brand attachment to authentic (versus less authentic) brands when they experience situations that make them feel inauthentic. Practical implications This paper has implications for brand communication strategies adopted by brands that are positioned strongly on authenticity. Originality/value This paper is one of the few to examine the effect of brand authenticity on brand attachment taking into account the moderating role of situational and individual difference variables. The findings contribute to the brand attachment and brand authenticity literatures.

Adidas is one of the most famous brands of sports shoes in the world after Nike. This can be seen from the sales data of Adidas’ sports shoes which were ranked second in 2017. Even though the sales of Adidas’ sports shoes increased compared to 2016, Adidas’ sales were still far below Nike’s. Adidas can utilize the brand authenticity that they have to increase their consumer’s brand attachment, so it can increase their sales. This study used a questionnaire method distributed to 192 respondents in Jabodetabek who had used Adidas’ sport shoes and then processed the data using SPSS. From this study it can be concluded that the brand authenticity significantly and positively influences the brand attachment of Adidas sports shoes users. In addition, it was also found that brand experience can positively moderate the influence of brand authenticity on brand attachment from Adidas sports shoes users.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of brand authenticity on brand attachment and subsequently on consumer behaviour related to food brands. Design/methodology/approach – Results are derived from primary data collected from a consumer sample in Greece. Respondents rate their brand authenticity and brand attachment for two well established authentic Greek brands in the food industry. Findings – The study confirms that brand authenticity predicts the brand attachment, while brand attachment influences consumers purchase intentions, willingness to pay more and promote the brand. Practical implications – The benefits of brand authenticity should not be ignored and should be protected by the brand managers of food brands because it can be the one of the competitive advantages that can be leveraged in the competitive food industry sector. Originality/value – It provides the required empirical support for the impact of brand authenticity on brand attachment and behavioural intentions in the food industry.
