Consumer Behavior On Online Grocery Shopping Adoption. A Quantitative Analysis In The Context Of The Covid-19 Pandemic, Contrasting The Markets Of Peru And Germany

Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Business economics - Market research, grade: 1,3, University of applied sciences, Munich, language: English, abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic raised the demand for online food shopping in traditional Peru and Germany. This urged an in-depth examination since consumer attitudes in specific cultural contexts had received little attention. Thus, this research aims to ascertain the factors that significantly influence Germans' and Peruvians' intention to use online grocery shopping, as well as to identify significant differences between the two countries. Two particular research topics serve as the framework for this study, which are as follows: Are there significant differences in the usage of online grocery shopping between Germans and Peruvians during the COVID-19 pandemic? What factors significantly influence Germans and Peruvians' online grocery shopping usage during the COVID-19 pandemic? As indicated by both research questions, this study's primary emphasis is on online grocery shopping behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic that peaked one year ago, in the year 2020, yet has persisted worldwide. Therefore, this study focuses only on empirical data from the COVID-19 outbreak since online grocery shopping in both nations was not a significant event before the pandemic. Furthermore, there was no previous scientific research on online grocery shopping's behavior in Peruvian literature, preventing comparison between the two countries. Given that the pandemic's breakout aided in the partial adoption of online grocery shopping in both nations, the researcher judged it appropriate to frame both research questions exclusively in terms of the COVID-19 pandemic to capture better the influence of the digital transition that was experienced in 2020.
