| dc.description.abstract | Consumer behavior continues to evolve, a phenomenon accentuated by various factors, notably the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Globally enforced lockdowns mandated by governments compelled individuals to seek new survival strategies, prompting shifts in their purchasing patterns. The restrictions on movement necessitated a surge in online shopping. Additionally, the pandemic fostered panic-driven bulk purchases, as consumers sought means of survival without adequate information on the duration of the crisis (Loxton et al., 2020) | |
