Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper examined the influence of visual, gustatory, tactile, and olfactory attributes of malt brands on consumer purchase in Nigeria. The study adopted a quantitative research design. Structural Equation Modeling technique was employed to test the hypothesized relationships at 5% level of significance. The findings revealed that visual, gustatory, tactile, and olfactory attributes of malt brands had significant influences on consumer purchase intentions. The findings also show a significant association between consumers’ purchase intentions and actual purchase decisions. The results obtained are for exploratory purposes which have many implications for food and beverage companies.
