The course provides students with a comprehensive understanding of consumer behaviour in the context of the food market and connects technical and technological knowledge with principles of marketing and consumer decision‑making. The instruction focuses on psychological, social and economic factors influencing purchasing behaviour, on theoretical models of the consumer, and on the specific characteristics of food as a commodity. The course includes an analysis of current trends in nutrition, sustainability, digitalisation and innovation in the food sector, as well as an understanding of the role of production, processing, logistics and food labelling in shaping consumer perceptions of quality. An important part of the course is devoted to marketing strategies used in the food industry, including market segmentation, product development, pricing, distribution and communication with consumers. The course also addresses legislative aspects of consumer protection at both national and European levels, food safety and the regulation of marketing claims.
