“…In the food trade, Linder’s hypothesis is able to identify the existence of economic similarities that also influence exports in terms of food consumption preferences (Steinbach, 2015). The significant influence of relative factor endowment on food export is in line with the findings of Kaitibie and Rakotoarisoa (2017) and Ferto and Jambor (2015) that the negative coefficient of relative factor endowment indicated that the higher difference in factor endowment between trade partners affect negatively food export. In other words, it means that the smaller factor endowment could boost food export because the similarity of factor endowment between trade partners.…”

“…Therefore, it is not surprising that in empirical research related to international trade the gravity of trade model is one of the models that is widely used by researchers (Kashiwagi et al , 2020), including in studies related to the export of food commodities, such as food export on intra-GCC countries (Kaitibie and Rakotoarisoa, 2017), Iranian exported tomatoes (Ehsan Zohoori et al , 2018), Pakistani rice export (Irshad et al , 2018), Vietnam’s rice export (Thuong, 2018), Ethiopia’s coffee export (Bekele and Mersha, 2019), Nigeria’s cocoa export, Algeria’s agricultural export (Matallah et al , 2021), Vietnam’s rice and coffee (Nguyen, 2022) and global trade of rabbit meat export (Wu, 2022).…”

Purpose This study aims to unveil the variables that drive Indonesia’s seafood exports to organization of Islamic cooperation (OIC) countries, including a deeper analysis to understand the factors that affect Indonesia’s potential for halal seafood exports, and attempts to validate Linder’s hypothesis, which might occur as part of the determinants of Indonesia’s seafood exports, as well as one of the variables that can affect Indonesia’s potency of halal seafood exports based on economic scale similarities and relative factor endowments. Design/methodology/approach Using Poisson regression by pseudo maximum likelihood, this study applies the theory of trade gravity and Linder’s hypothesis of Indonesia’s seafood exports to OIC countries and its halal market potency over the 30 years observation period from 1992 to 2021, with 47 countries importing Indonesia’s seafood products during the observation period based on United Nations Comtrade statistics. Findings The variables that drive Indonesia’s seafood exports are the situation of the economy between Indonesia and its trading partners, the population of importing countries and the common understanding of language. On the other hand, the adjusted-Muslim GDP of importing countries, the adjusted-Muslim GDP of Indonesia and the number of Muslim inhabitants of importer countries are the factors that affect Indonesia’s potential for halal seafood exports. The study also validates the presence of Linder’s hypothesis in Indonesia’s seafood export and could hint Indonesia’s potential for halal seafood exports Research limitations/implications Owing to the absence of an Harmonized System code that explicitly accommodates trade in halal commodities, especially in halal seafood exports, it will be more accurate if data are available in the future as material for further studies. Future studies may also consider per capita consumption of seafood, food safety standards and the level of food security from OIC countries as variables that might also influence Indonesia’s seafood exports in an approach analysis using the gravity theory of trade. Practical implications This study is part of the authors’ efforts to encourage a greater contribution of the fisheries sector to Indonesia’s GDP by identifying the factors that drive seafood exports, which have so far only been around 2%–3% and have never reached more than 4% in the past two decades. While Indonesia is blessed with extraordinary marine biodiversity and hopes of being the leader of the halal food industry, the fisheries sector is expected to contribute. Originality/value Unlike previous studies that used the approach of the gravity model of trade on food exports, this study is specifically in the field of seafood exports, takes Indonesia as the main object of research and also examines Linder’s hypothesis as part of the analysis to identify what drives Indonesia’s seafood exports in the OIC countries market and fill the scant of studies highlighting the factors that could drive halal food exports, specifically in seafood.

“…[16] According to the annual statistics of food consumed in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), in 2017, Saudi Arabia was on the upper side of the list of GCC countries in terms of the amount of annual consumed food. [69] In 2012, the amount of consumed food in the country totaled 25.8 million metric tons, compared to 29.6 million metric tons in 2014 (961.6 kg per capita). [70] This is of particular relevance to the present study since adolescents have become especially vulnerable to extreme marketing efforts by business companies to advertise unhealthy snacks since they represent future adult consumers.…”

Aim:The aim of the study was to examine the perceived trustworthiness of the electronic word of mouth (eWOM) on attitude and their purchase intention toward dietary supplements, particularly with Saudi female adolescents. Materials and Methods: The sample of 1027 adolescent Saudi females was contacted online. Excel and Social Science Statistics were used to analyze the data as per the requirement of the study. The hypothesis that has been built in this study was tested with Chi-squire test at significance level of P ≤ 0.05, and result was analyzed and interpreted accordingly. Results and Discussion: More than 50% believed that dietary supplements have a nice and favorable effect on health. The study's findings suggest that the perceived trustworthiness of eWOM has a significant impact on attitude toward dietary supplements and impacts the purchase intention of adolescents. Conclusion:There is a positive relationship between the trustworthiness of eWOM on purchase intention of dietary supplements among the respondents. Overall, it is recommended that the marketer of this product (dietary supplements) should maintain the user's perception and build brand image using the proper positioning of the marketing mix that suits the target consumers.
