Lernen durch Scheitern beim Einsatz von Bio-Lebensmitteln in der Außer-Haus-Verpflegung
- The increasing importance of the eating-out sector has to be seen as a driver for the continued growth of the organic food market. Focusing on unsuccessful use of organic products this project analyses potentially useful information that could be deployed for strategic recommendations.
