Dostępność dziczyzny na polskim rynku w kontekście potrzeb konsumentów

Game meat, despite its high nutritional value, appears in the diet of Poles sporadically. The main factors limiting consumer interest in game are limited availability of game meat at stores and high prices of meat and game products. In the paper results of the qualitative study carried out using the CATI method were presented. The study was conducted in 2016 with 450 consumers declaring eating game meat. Study shows that the physical and economic availability of game meat affects consumer interest in its consumption. Minor improvement in the availability of venison in the Polish market are being observed. High prices still seem to be a significant barrier to consumers’ interest in wild game.
