Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to consider country of origin in terms of its association with brand heritage and its implications in fashion branding, thus providing a new perspective within the context of retail and wholesale brands. This qualitative study demonstrates how country of origin is widely used as a communicative tool by retail and wholesale brands, associated with brand heritage. However, the way country of origin is manifested and/or associated (e.g. brand name, colour etc.) varies depending on a brand’s history, positioning, brand value, and the type of market sector that the retail and wholesale brands are targeting.
