Questa tesi si pone l’obiettivo di prendere in analisi il ruolo centrale del consumatore e la soddisfazione delle relative esigenze. Il lavoro è diviso in tre parti , nel primo capitolo mi sono voluta soffermare a prendere in considerazione la stretta relazione esistente tra l’agricoltura e l’industria agro-alimentare dato che senza un’efficiente e valida agricoltura non si riuscirebbe a raggiungere gli obiettivi desiderati, essendo l’agricoltura alla base dell’industria alimentare e fornendo le materie prime utili per la produzione e in seguito commercializzazione del prodotto. Successivamente ho preso in analisi uno dei fattori determinanti il sistema agro-alimentare e cioè il sistema distributivo e le varie tecniche di vendita utilizzate per commercializzare al meglio i prodotti destinati ai consumatori finali ; questo capitolo l’ho voluto concludere esaminando l’evoluzione del concetto di marketing in riferimento ai prodotti alimentari. La seconda parte della tesi invece cerca di entrare più nello specifico ed introdurre l’importanza del comportamento del consumatore per l’azienda agro-alimentare la quale deve capire come il prodotto è in grado di soddisfare le specifiche esigenze così da trovare la giusta via per far crescere l’intenzione e la volontà a consumare un determinato prodotto. Il consumatore vuole in primis salvaguardare la propria salute ,quindi la qualità è la priorità ricercata nei prodotti alimentari e per questo mi sono voluta soffermare a capire meglio questo concetto in relazione al fatto che funge pure da leva per il marketing agro-alimentare Infine ho introdotto la situazione agro-alimentare in Sicilia , per poi nel terzo capitolo prendere in esame un’azienda siciliana che vende all’ingrosso prodotti ortofrutticoli e che fa parte della GDO, che ha l’ obiettivo principale di offrire ai propri clienti un prodotto di qualità che non sia stato sottoposto durante la fase di produzione a sostanze chimiche che potrebbero alterare lo stato del prodotto e la sua genuinità.

Abstract
This thesis has the aim to take in analysis the central role of the consumer and the satisfaction of his needs. The work is divided into three parts, in the first chapter I wanted to linger to consider the close relationship existent between agriculture and agri-food industry since without an efficient and viable agriculture there will not be achieved the desired goals, being the agriculture at the base of the food industry and providing the useful raw materials for the production and further more the commercialization of the product. Later I took in analysis one of the determinants the agri-food system, namely the distribution system and the various sales techniques used to market the best products to the final consumer; I wanted to conclude this chapter by examining the evolution of the marketing concept in reference to the food products. The second part of the thesis instead tries to enter more specifically and to introduce the importance of consumer behavior for the agri-food company which has to understand what are the needs that are meant to be satisfied their specific needs in order to find the right way to increase the intention and the will to consume a certain product. The consumer wants moreover to safeguard his own health, so the quality of food is the demanded priority and this is the reason why I wanted to linger for a better understanding of this concept in relation to the fact that it also acts as a lever of the agri-food marketing. Finally I introduced the agri-food situation in Sicily and in the third chapter particularly I wanted to examine a Sicilian company that sells at the wholesale, fruit and vegetables and which takes part to the GDO, who 's main aim is offering its customers a quality product that have not been subjected, during the production phase, to chemicals that may have altered the condition of the product and its genuineness.È consentito all'utente scaricare e condividere i documenti disponibili a testo pieno in UNITESI UNIPV nel rispetto della licenza Creative Commons del tipo CC BY NC ND.
