Abstract

The problematic contingents have been related to business ethics, corporate social responsibility, perceived green marketing, brand loyalty, and have been related to the exploitation of the environment caused by technologies, which has affected society. The objective of the study was to determine the influence of business ethics on corporate social responsibility and its perception of consumer loyalty in Tungurahua. The applied method had a quantitative approach since the connection between perceived business ethics and social responsibility in commercial companies was evaluated based on the correlational scope. The applied examinee was probabilistic in a simple random order of 384 people. The results revealed that most of the clients did not perceive business ethics and corporate social responsibility (CSR) as separate constructs. However, it was evidenced that companies improved their corporate social responsibility (CSR) and green marketing practices to formulate sustainability strategies based on the aforementioned factors.
