Attraverso una prospettiva di analisi cross-national (che coinvolge tre campioni di studenti in Italia, Spagna e Regno Unito), il paper intende contribuire all’avanzamento della conoscenza in materia di atteggiamenti dei consumatori nei confronti dei brand globali, rispetto al loro contesto culturale/nazionale e ad alcuni fattori customer-based della brand equity. Le ricerche in questo campo hanno spesso mostrato risultati contrastanti. Al fine di esplorare i nuovi percorsi di ricerca, si propone uno studio pilota impostato su tecniche di analisi multivariata (analisi delle corrispondenze multiple e cluster analysis), declinate secondo l’approccio francese. L’identificazione di tre diversi cluster di consumatori (no logo, brand dreamers, etnocentrici), ciascuno con un diverso approccio verso i brand, suggerisce alcune implicazioni in termini manageriali al di là delle "rigide" contrapposizioni globalismo/localismo e standardizzazione/adattamento proposte spesso in letteratura.

Parole chiave:Marchi globali, atteggiamenti dei consumatori, effetto COO, identità nazionale.
