By analyzing the unique cultural, market, and policy context of China, the research examines how these factors influence consumer trust and its impact on purchasing decision mechanisms. The paper further employs empirical research methods to analyze data on the relationship between consumer trust and purchase intentions and offers recommendations for businesses and policymakers. The findings indicate that consumer trust significantly affects purchase intentions, and enhancing consumer trust can effectively increase positive purchasing tendencies. Finally, the paper summarizes the main findings, discusses their theoretical and practical implications, and outlines directions for future research.
