countries in which it didn’t exist before. Increased availability of organic products
in different distribution channels and from different parts of the world is actually
the consequence of organic market development which sets new tasks for
promotion, as for marketing mix instrument. On one hand, direct marketing
channels and specialized organic stores are attempting to remain competitive.
Besides, there is a need to target increased number of occasional organic buyers. At
the same time, possibilities of promoting “organic plus” arguments in order to
