Abstract
The preliminary study was designed to identify interesting research themes, which will be qualitatively explored further at a later date. The use of a qualitative approach was deemed necessary in order to enrich the literature on the country of origin effect. The study obtained preliminary data through a survey of young domestic consumers in Mataram, Indonesia.The respondents were university students attending a number of different universities in the city. They were chosen because they will determine domestic consumer behaviour and be decision-makers for the wealth of their country. The data mainly described the young consumers’ awareness of domestic brands, their domestic buying behaviour and their understanding of domestically produced products in comparison to those from China. Product categories included fashion, toiletries, mobile phones and laptops. In light of the preliminary findings, there were six interesting themes involved in studying the country of origin effect in relation to domestic brands, ethnocentrism and product image. The themes emerged as still little understanding exists in the literature. Further research on the themes can shed additional light on the country of origin effect on young consumers’ behaviour and attitudes in a developing country and thus contribute to the related body of knowledge.
