Abstract : This research explores the mediating role of brand trust in the relationship between cognitive, activation, and affective dimensions of consumer-brand engagement and brand equity in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector. Employing an exploratory cum descriptive research design, the study utilized a single cross-sectional approach with a sample size of 400 respondents from the National Capital Region (NCR).
