Covering enterprises operating in Konya province, the study analyzes attitudes towards environmentally friendly technologies and sustainability-based transformations. The sector has an important place in the Turkish food industry and is more closely associated with green economy principles in line with increasing environmental pressures. Within the scope of the research, a survey was conducted with 51 enterprises selected by proportional sampling method from a population of 107 enterprises. The questionnaire form includes the structural characteristics of the enterprises, their attitudes towards green economy practices and the factors affecting these practices.
