In addition objective was to assist exporters of walnuts from the Republic of Moldova to understand the needs of the walnut consumers in Sweden. The reason Sweden was chosen because it offers a great opportunity for the companies exporting organic walnuts due to the high demand of walnuts and the prices of them. The quantitative research method along with questionnaires where used. A total of 151 questionnaires were gathered in Sweden through the emails and social media. The results of this research reveal the preferences of Swedish walnut consumers.

Another factor indicates that for Swedish consumers country of origin is not the most important factor for walnut purchasing decision. The research suggests that the Republic of Moldova can offer for exports high quality organic walnuts for a low price. The exporters of Moldavian walnuts should pay attention to these factors. These findings are of practical use to walnut exporters from the Republic of Moldova who have the competitive advantage of low cost combined with the high quality and taste in walnuts and they are with the low production costs that they can successfully enter the Swedish market they achieve then it will be easier for them to be successful in their export activities. Suggestions for further investigations are needed in order to achieve a fuller research. This study can provide the analysis of the Swedish consumer perception towards walnut consumption. It can be used for studies related to consumer behavior or studies related to exporting opportunities. | en_US |
