consumer market toevaluate the impact of food packaging cues on perceived product quality.The moderatingeffect of consumer knowledge was also taken into consideration in the study.Signallingtheory was used in the study for its established predictive power in consumer behaviour,marketing and various fields of research.Based on the essence of signalling theory,thisstudy hypothesized that food packaging cues cast a positive impact on perceived productquality and consumer knowledge moderates these relationships.By using the sample of504 consumers,data were gathered using mall intercept method following multi stagessampling technique.The responses were analyzed using Statistical Package for SocialSciences(SPSS)and Smart Partial Least Square(PLS).The SPSS was used for descriptiveanalysis whereas Smart PLS was used for inferential analysis.The findings of the studyunveil that the extrinsic cues brand name,price,nutritional label,precautionary label andHalal logo were positively and significantly related to perceived product quality.However,country of origin casted no impact on perceived product quality.Consumer's knowledgereflected a moderate effect on the relationships of brand name and country of origin withperceived product quality whereas it exerted no moderation impact on the relationships ofprice,nutritional label,precautionary label and Halal logo with perceived product quality.As the results exhibit that Pakistani consumers rely on food packaging cues for perceivingabout the product hence it is recommended to the marketers and policy makers to developappropriate marketing strategies focused on the significance of food packaging cues.  \nKeywords:Perceived Product Quality,Food Packaging Cues,Consumer's Knowledge,Signalling Theory.
