Abstract: Abstract The promotion of ethical consumption in the online agricultural product market has garnered significant attention. This study examines how social enterprises can effectively utilize online communities to foster ethical consumption by emphasizing origin information. By analyzing consumer reviews from the online communities of the Japanese agricultural product store, the findings reveal that consumers prioritize not only the taste and health benefits of agricultural products but also the importance of their production origins. This study underscores the pivotal role of strategic communication within online communities and offers practical insights for social enterprises to design marketing strategies that align with ethical consumption values, thereby supporting regional revitalization and advancing sustainable development goals.
