Additionally, specialized merchants and local markets are maintaining traditional purchasing habits, stressing traceability and local authenticity that connects with consumers who value provenance and quality. The coordinated growth of these channels guarantees that honey goods effectively reach various European consumer groups by means of increased market penetration and accessibility.
