Purchase intention of halal food products in Spain: the moderating effect of religious involvement
2020

The present work aims to empirically analyse the halal food purchase intention from the perspective of Spanish consumers. This is considering the fact that even though Spain is a country where Muslims are not the majority, it still has a big potential to become a major halal tourist destination. The collected data were retrieved through a survey of 500 Muslims in various regions of Spain. Structured questionnaires were used to gather information on their purchase intention of halal food products. The research used a quantitative method to analyse 500 respondents to represent the Muslim community in Spain. The results of the present work suggest that religious involvement acts as a moderator on the relationship between presumed influence and purchase intention. However, it does not act as a moderator on the relationship between attitude towards halal and purchase intention. The most possible reason behind this is because Muslim consumers, especially the second or third generation of Muslims in a non-Muslim country such as Spain, do not have the same food-shopping habits as their parents.
