                            <p>Gastronomy and gastronomic products have been used more widely in the marketing of destinations in recent years. Local cuisine, food culture and gastronomic identity of a city can attract local and foreign visitors to the city. Thus, destinations are recognized, differentiated and on the way to branding.Turkey is a country where different cultures live together and each city has its own unique cuisine. The city of Izmir, as a result of hosting different cultures throughout its history, has had a unique cuisine and is the third largest city in Turkey in terms of population. It is a very convenient and attractive destination in terms of gastronomy and gastronomy tourism. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of gastronomy tourism on destination branding with the case of Izmir.For this purpose, in this study, a supply-side stakeholder analysis was carried out with semi-structured interviews, which is one of the qualitative research techniques. The obtained data were analyzed by content analysis. As a result of the research, the effect of gastronomy tourism on the branding of İzmir destination has been proven, but it has been revealed that this effect is not sufficient and strong in İzmir today.</p></trans-abstract>

Bir kentin yerel mutfağı, yemek kültürü ve gastronomik kimliği yerli ve yabancı ziyaretçileri kente çekebilmektedir. Destinasyonlar böylelikle tanınmakta, farklılaşmakta ve markalaşma yolunda ilerlemektedir. Türkiye farklı kültürlerin bir arada yaşadığı ve bu sayede her bir kentinin kendine özgü mutfağa sahip olduğu bir ülkedir. İzmir kenti de tarihi boyunca farklı kültürlere ev sahipliği yapması sonucunda kendine özgü bir mutfağa sahip olmuş Türkiye’nin üçüncü büyük kentidir. Gastronomi ve gastronomi turizmi açısından oldukça elverişli ve çekici bir destinasyondur. Dolayısıyla bu çalışmanın amacı da destinasyon markalaşmasında gastronomi turizminin etkisini İzmir örneğiyle değerlendirmektir.Bu amaçla, bu çalışmada nitel araştırma kapsamında yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşmeler ile arz yönlü bir paydaş analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler içerik analizi ile incelenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda İzmir destinasyonunun markalaşmasında gastronomi turizminin etkisi kanıtlanmış fakat bu etkinin İzmir’de günümüzde yeterli düzeyde ve güçlü olmadığı ortaya çıkmıştır.</p></abstract>
