AB  - Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze perceptions of quality in the chicken meat supply chain. Design/methodology/approach This survey covered 74 different farms, slaughterhouses, meat processors, and retailers and 500 consumers, using two methods. From the farm to retail, analysis covered customer - supplier viewpoints in different stages of the supply chain. From the consumers to the farms, the quality function deployment method was used. Five houses of quality have been developed using the Delphi method to synthesize the opinions of experts. Findings Farm-slaughter comparison shows that final weight at farm gate and animal welfare are the most important quality attributes. The quality aspect important for slaughterhouses and meat processors is the cold chain. Retailers and meat processors highlight the portfolio of various chicken meat products as their most important quality attribute. At the points of sale, shelf illumination and product placement are prevailing. Research limitations/implications The results suggest that there are different views on quality by all actors in the supply chain, from quality of chicken meat, food safety and quality of service in retail to profitability and animal welfare. Practical implications The paper enhances simplicity in analyzing quality aspects of different types of meat supply chains. This methodology enables a synergy of value chain promotion with other quality development approaches. It also creates possibilities for policy makers to improve competitiveness strategies. Originality/value Application of a similar approach to other parts of the food chain could offer a better insight into the transformation of quality.

AB  - The objective of this paper was to assess the environmental performance of the chicken meat chain, including 119 different farms, slaughterhouses, meat processors and retailers, as well as 500 households. A total of 619 life cycle assessment calculations have been completed to identify and quantify the environmental impacts from a cradle-to-grave perspective covering five subsystems: 'chicken farm', 'slaughterhouse', 'meat processing plant', 'retail' and 'household use'. Structured surveys in selected entities have been conducted in order to collect life cycle inventory input data. Five environmental impact potentials were calculated in this study: global warming potential, acidification potential, eutrophication potential, ozone layer depletion and cumulative energy demand. The focus of the research was put on global warming potential, ozone layer depletion and cumulative energy demand, as these three indicators had significant values for each of the examined subsystems. As a general finding, this study found that the largest contributor to the environmental profile of the entire chicken meat chain is feed production and energy usage. Mitigation options for optimization of environmental impacts rely on the utilization of grain legumes as protein source in feed, treating of chicken litter in a biogas digester, application of the energy efficient equipment through the entire chain and recycling of household waste.

AB  - Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to analyse consumer perception of quality characteristics of chicken meat and chicken meat products in Southeast European countries (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, FYR of Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia). Design/methodology/approach - Results were collected from a field survey by using data obtained from a questionnaire directed at 2,368 consumers during 2015. Findings - This study identified four consumer segments: "typical", "selective", "chicken meat preparers" and "uninterested" chicken meat consumers. Originality/value - Older consumers (50 years) have higher interest in chicken meat quality characteristics, while women are "chicken meat preparers". Chicken meat consumers who prefer particular chicken parts and consume chicken meat because it is nutritious are found among the working population, while the most number of consumers "uninterested" in chicken meat come from Serbia.

AB  - This review aims to give an overview of published environmental assessments using the life cycle assessment (LCA) approach. LCA was deployed in terms of five main subsystems in the poultry meat chain: poultry farm, slaughterhouse, meat processing plant, retail and household use. This review revealed that 15 different environmental potentials are used as environmental indicators for estimating environmental performance of the poultry meat chain. General finding is that further research should use the LCA approach to assess the environmental performance of an overall poultry meat chain, focusing on the global warming potential, acidification potential, eutrophication potential and ozone layer depletion.
