The pandemic in question has caused multifaceted changes in the daily lives of individuals on a global scale. Due to the restrictions and social distance rules experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic process, changes have also been observed in the purchasing behavior of consumers.

For example, in this period, consumers showed interest in personal hygiene products and stockable food products. In this context, firstly the concept of consumption and then the factors affecting the decision-making processes and actions of consumers towards purchasing are emphasized.
