Retailer Strategies in the Food Marketing Chain
Co-Editors' Note
The six papers in this special JAFIO issue are those accepted for publication from a pool of papers submitted to JAFIO following presentation at the 88th EAAE seminar, which was held in Paris in May 2004.
All papers went through the same double-blind review process regular JAFIO articles go through. Dr. Louis Georges Soler and I would like to thank all authors for contributing to the issue and thank all the reviewers for their prompt and professional reviews. We are also grateful to Pamela Holmes for editorial assistance.
