The book "International marketing and trade of quality food products" has been just published by Wageningen Academic Publishers, Wageningen, The Netherlands.

The book has been edited by Maurizio Canavari, Nicola Cantore, Alessandra Castellini, Erika Pignatti and Roberta Spadoni.

This book contains peer-reviewed articles covering a range of studies on international marketing and trade for quality food products. Previous versions of the studies were selected among those presented during the 105th EAAE seinar, organised with the support of the BEAN-QUORUM project, funded by the European Union's Asia Link Programme.

The topics covered by the studies range from geographical indications to organic food; from fair trade to functional food; from knowledge about quality requirements to the impact of the quest for quality. The geographical scope of the studies is broad and the perspectives vary including the consumer, the producer and the supply chain side. The focal interest of the studies also range from competitiveness, to policy, to potential demand.

The book is of interest to researchers and practitioners in international food networks of all types.
