Resumen Este trabajo tiene como propósito identificar el perfil de los consumidores verdes en México con base en la Intención de Compra Verde y la Actitud Hacia el Consumo Verde. Para lograrlo, además del Análisis Factorial Exploratorio y Confirmatorio necesarios para construir las variables latentes, se estimaron los análisis Clúster Jerárquico y No Jerárquico (k-medias) requeridos para definir los segmentos. Los datos se obtuvieron de la Encuesta de Consumo Verde aplicada a consumidores finales. Los resultados muestran dos tipologías del consumidor verde: los escépticos, que se caracterizan por su falta de información y actitud egoísta respecto al medioambiente, y los altruistas que destacan por una amplia información y preocupación por el medioambiente.
