description This study explores the attitudes of India’s urban middle class consumers towards ethical foods, while also understanding what influenced these attitudes. It revealed a range of diverse attitudes towards ethical foods, many of which were unique to Indian culture.

Against the backdrop of change, this study highlighted the role and significance of sustainable consumption in urban India.
