Öz

Yiyecek içecek işletmelerinin tüketicilerin gözünde oluşturdukları olumlu gıda güvenliği algısı, işletmelerin yoğun rekabet ortamında başarılı olabilmesi için son derece önemlidir. Bu bağlamda İzmir’de yiyecek içecek işletmesi müşterilerinin gıda güvenliği algılarına etki eden faktörlerin belirlenmesi bu çalışmanın temel amacını olmuştur. Yapılan analizler sonucunda, müşterilerinin gıda güvenliği algılarına etki eden faktörlerin “Yiyecek Faktörü” ve “İşletme ve Çalışan Faktörü” olarak iki boyut altında toplandığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca bu iki boyut altında müşterilerin gıda güvenliği algılarını etkiyen en önemli faktörlerin, servis edilen ürünlerin kalitesi ile restoranın masa ve sandalyelerinin temizliği olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır.
