This statistic presents the results of a survey conducted from February 17 to March 7, 2014. Internet users worldwide were polled if they had purchased products and services provided by a socially responsible company in the last six months. Some 59 percent of respondents in the Middle East and Africa said they made at least one purchase from a socially responsible company in the last six months.
Have you purchased at least one product or service in the past six months from a socially responsible company?
* Note: The findings in this survey are based on respondents with online access in 60 countries throughout Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and North America. While an online survey methodology allows for tremendous scale and global reach, it provides a perspective only on the habits of existing internet users, not total populations. In developing markets where online penetration is still growing, audiences may be younger and more affluent than the general population of that country. In addition, survey responses are based on claimed bahvior rather than actual metered data.
The survey has a margin of error of +/- 0.6 percentage points.
The survey does not give any information regarding the age group of respondents.
