Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to identify major research topics and propose future research directions for the short food supply chains (SFSCs) by conducting a comprehensive bibliometric analysis.

Design/methodology/approach

A step-by-step literature review was performed. A total of 684 scientific papers were retrieved from Scopus, dated between 2000 and 2020. Then, content analysis was conducted based on 162 articles selected from the co-citation analysis. Bibexcel and Gephi software were employed to analyse, integrate and visualize the data.

Findings

The results of the descriptive analysis provided insights into publication trends, prominent countries, institutions and journal sources, which had not been fully captured or evaluated by previous reviews. In the citation analysis, the authors determined the highly cited papers based on the global citation. Additionally, in the co-citation analysis, the authors derived six research clusters, identified research gaps in each of six clusters and then suggested possible future research directions.

Originality/value

Although several reviews have focused on certain aspects of SFSCs, a comprehensive review has been lacking. This study is among the first to comprehensively examine the knowledge structure of SFSCs research by using rigorous bibliometric analysis. More importantly, the future lines presented here offer potential insights for SFSCs researchers and policymakers.

Abstract

Purpose

This study investigated the predictors of overall value for money in the hospitality industry concerning routine practices reinforcing SDG goals. The sequential mediation underlines the mechanism of theoretical viability and sustainability relevance of restaurant environment factors and customer-generated communication on social media to influence the value impressions of hospitality customers.

Design/methodology/approach

Cross-sectional design was utilized to obtain empirical data from customers of luxury restaurants in mega cities of Pakistan. Non-probability purposive sampling was deployed to collect data from 370 customers. The chained relationship of predictors was analyzed using Smart PLS.

Findings

The SDGs' integration with predictors provided theoretical insights into the role of physical spaces in achieving SDG 14 of sustainable consumption and production. The role of social media communication explains the mechanism of online discourse, which shapes perceptions of sustainable dining experiences.

Practical implications

This study explained sustainable consumption's relation to consumers' psychological undertakings and reinforced the dinners' decision-making processes to evaluate expectations influencing dining choices. This study helps to understand how sustainability issues transformed consumers' value perception and helps them take measures to minimize the environmental impact of their dining choices.

Originality/value

The sequential mediation model investigated with the lens of expectation disconfirmation theory provided relational clarity, which is difficult to achieve when comparing the perception of customers with performance variables. Distinguishing overall value for money from perceived value is essential for making data-driven decisions to utilize monetary resources efficiently.
