Abstract:
This study is about the influence of toothpaste attributes on consumers’ brand choice.
Given the background of the problems, this study sought to :
1. Determine the common attributes of toothpaste (taste, colour, price, foaming, brand name, protective strength, whitening effect, and fresh breath) which influence consumers’ brand choice.
2. Verify how the product attributes vary between the common brands of toothpaste in the market.
3. Determine whether there is any variation in brand choice between socio-economic groups.

2. The common product attributes (taste, colour, foaming, brand name, price protective strength, whitening effect, and fresh breath)
