“…This is, in business terms and in the context of the growth economy, a rather unusual perspective; it links with the concept of community entrepreneurship in which the notion of the local and immediate environment of the entrepreneur motivates and legitimizes activity (Johannisson 1990). In our study, the entrepreneurs demonstrated a strong wish to contribute to development, based on a desire to strengthen local community spirit and livelihoods (Palladino et al 2019). A sustainable and trustworthy destination development discourse should therefore include greater awareness among policymakers that small-scale producers are often driven by passion, lifestyle choices and care of the local context and community, as well as maintaining value by remaining flexible, small and sustainable.…”

“…In this context, looking at points of sale through a social network analysis (SNA) is interesting to examine the relationships and the type of (strong or weak) links between buyers and sellers, whether they are points of sale in the city, or whether the consumer is interested in researching the produce in restaurants, sales points on farms, fairs and other places where they look for unconventional food production. Furthermore, knowing the type of links present in the network and their characteristics can allow an improvement in marketing to increase or maintain a competitive advantage and an adequate market positioning [42,[44][45][46]. These aspects will be examined in this document.…”

“…Network theory is starting to be used by scholars and marketers in multidisciplinary research, yet only a few scholars seem to have used it. This study utilizes SNA to discover the shape of the relations taking place in the market and the resources built on consumer behaviour to understand and describe the nature of these social interactions [37,38,41,46]. In some studies examining consumer preferences, MCA (Multiple Correspondence Analysis) was used.…”

International studies are dealing with the promotion of sustainable food systems more frequently. Additionally, places of purchase and sharing in the choice of food to be consumed have become a network system for families. The aim of this work is to analyse the preferences of Swedish consumers for local/artisanal cheeses and the purchase motivations that guide their choices. We also studied the role played by consumers’ favourite shopping locations (retail store, hypermarket, city market, supply chain). On the one hand, we examined the attractiveness and the power exercised by the various stores and on the other hand, we viewed the consumer in relation to the frequency of purchase, and the confidence with the sales points. We interviewed 200 people in the city of Östersund, highlighting habits, consumption preferences and reasons for purchasing. A multiple correspondence analysis explores the reasons behind the purchase preferences of the local ‘Källarlagrad getost’ artisan cheese from the Slow Food brand. The representations of social network analysis are used to show the complex articulations that influence the choices of consumers in terms of type of cheese purchased/consumed and places of purchase/consumption. The results showed that Swedish consumers, in the purchase of cheeses, have a loyalty point at the point of sale, follow the advice of the seller and are attentive to the reputation of the product. Those who buy Källarlagrad getost are sensitive to safety, appreciate artisan cheeses and choose them for their versatility, have a strong connection with the territory and wish to contribute to supporting the local economy. Knowing these characteristics and preferences of Swedish consumers living in a city in the north of the country is important for marketing activities and for promoting tourism and sustainable gastronomy.

The European Union, apart from its well-developed socio-economic regions, is also characterized by marginal, remote rural areas, where the difficult socio-economic conditions and gentrification are the basis of an increasing phenomenon of depopulation and territorial abandonment. In some of these areas, sometimes, not only the development of inland and/or mountainous areas is complex, but also coastal development is not easy, and it calls for synergies between regional authorities, enterprises, universities, schools, and, more in general, local private and public stakeholders. In such vulnerable areas, there is a greater necessity to build proper governance systems, where local communities and public and private stakeholders have the responsibility to meet, discuss and actively participate as public-private partnerships (PPP) in local development processes. In such a context this paper highlights some of the research themes that have been developed in the research project on Gastronomy and Tourism in remote European Areas with particular reference to the creation of a gastronomic Atlas, still under development, of the Italian area of study, the Metropolitan Town of Reggio Calabria.
