  • About

The research into green marketing, sustainability, commercialisation and consumer behaviour and preferences is growing. However, there is a lack of research on what these topics mean in the context of Africa. Using case studies from the African context, the authors explore the comprehensive outlook of green marketing in Africa, examining its historical antecedents, practical strategies and impact on consumer behaviour, and providing a prediction of the trends in the area.

Green Marketing in Africa: Navigating Sustainability and Future Trends in the Modern Marketplace explores the green marketing concept with an African focus and interpretation and demonstrates how a customised solution could be provided for the continent. This is a unique contribution, addressing both green marketing in general and deeper insights about African green marketing practices in specific.

New Frontiers in African Business and Society book series is dedicated to the exploration of theoretical and conceptual discussions that consolidate conventional knowledge about Africa. The purpose of the series is to invite new reflections on the nature of business and society across parts of Africa.
