Sumario:The sustainability labeling on the front of a package featured in a print advertisement may influence consumers’ product evaluations and purchase decisions. The findings of this exploratory study suggest that consumers seem to evaluate the sustainability claim more favorably if the advertisement highlights the personal impact on them.

The interactions that emerged in this study suggest that sustainability labeling effects constitute a complex phenomenon that warrants future research.
