Abstract (ENG): Responsible food innovation requires an understanding of target markets and consumers to avoid unsuccessful market entries and, consequently, wasted innovation potential. The study analyses and compares the perception of sustainability labels in the food sector in Germany and France with a sample size of 325 participants. The study provides insights into consumer preferences and their willingness to pay higher prices for sustainable food products. It reveals a broader awareness about sustainable food labels in Germany compared to the strong preference for local, national, and traditional food in France. In order to successfully define target groups and analyse market potentials, correlations between certain demographic characteristics such as parenthood or gender and sustainable food consumption are examined. As well as describing the current situation, the study provides forward-looking insights, such as the identification of a clearly preferred standardized food label.
