"Cities with this status have the potential to generate benefits from enhanced brand image, with associated economic and social rewards.

Notes:
Paper presented at the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association annual meeting, Boston, Massachusetts, July 31-August 2, 2016., Analysis shows that incumbent firms in four food industries tend to price higher and advertise less to deter entry when potential entrants are more competitive in terms of potential market share. Industries in which incumbents adopt lower prices and higher advertising signal that there is great potential for profit and, therefore, entrants with moderate competitiveness are also able to enter the market.

Notes:
303 pages., This book provides an up-to-date and comprehensive review and critique of the scientific evidence concerning the prevalence, nature and potential effects of food advertising and other forms of marketing on children. There is growing international concern about the prevalence of childhood obesity and associated health problems. Poor quality diet and nutrition has been blamed. The food and soft drinks industries have been targeted in this context for their promotions of foods and drinks that are high in salt, sugar and fat content. Many of the most widely promoted and consumed food brands fail to meet recommended nutritional standards. What is the evidence for the effects of food promotions on children's food preferences, diets and health? This book draws on evidence from around the world, reviewing the major studies before presenting a fresh assessment of the state of play. It considers also the issue of food regulation and advertising codes of practices, the need for better and relevant consumer education and socialisation about advertising and nutrition.
