A survey analysis focusing on deeper insight into Kenyan consumers’ awareness and behaviours towards more sustainable consumption has been conducted. The survey paid special attention to motivating and hindering factors in the Kenyan consumers that can affect the acceptance of sustainable products and behaviours, since better understanding how consumers are making decisions will be crucial in designing effective marketing strategies to increase the share of sustainable horticultural processed products purchased. Besides, the survey have analysed consumers’ perception of green products, their knowledge and awareness on certification and eco-labelling, their level of awareness on the need of adopting SCP behaviours, etc. This could serve as a basis to design consumer awareness raising campaigns accordingly
