Mediating effect of Halal image on Muslim consumers’ intention to patronize retail stores

Purpose Muslim consumers' tendency to patronize stores with Halal images and purchase genuine Halal products is closely related to their effort to maintain Islamic identity, and this is further supported by many empirical data. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the relationships between attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control and Halal principle knowledge and their effect on Muslim consumers' behavioral intention to patronize retail stores. On top of that, the mediating effect of Halal image on these relationships is also investigated.
