Abstract:
This paper aims to understand the research on brand love since the first appearance of the word 'love' in consumer behaviour relationships and to provide a systematic review of brand love research in the literature. In addition, derive a comprehensive conceptualization of brand love, and summarize important key findings as well as the fundamental issues for future research. An extensive literature review was carried out on brand love, which was spread over 44 journals found on the ISI Web of Science, Scopus, Emerald, EBSCO, and Science Direct. A total of 79 conceptual and empirical papers from 1998 to 2017 were analysed using different classification schemes. Significant research activity found in the 2013-2017 period and most of that examined the antecedents and consequences of brand love in various research settings. This study can serve as a valuable tool for researchers to understand the concept of brand love and to direct further research.
