The demand of organic food is increasing despite its premium pricing and lack of availability particularly in developing countries like Bangladesh. This paper aims to provide the insights about organic foods and the intention consumers have to purchase or not to purchase organic food. The pesticide-residue problem has opened a market opportunity for organic food as it is produced without any form of synthetic chemicals. As there was insufficient literature, a survey was conducted on 900 respondents on six major supermarkets selling organic food in the capital city of Bangladesh. It is found that, consumers expect the organic foods to be healthier, tastier, and environment friendly. The organic food buyers tend to be older with child, have higher education level and family income than those of non-buyers. The barrier of organic food is that majority consumers have less knowledge and do not know the main differentiation between organic foods and traditional foods.

<p><em>The purpose of this study was to determine the direct and indirect effects of managerial characteristics on BMT performance through a strategic orientation. This research is an explanatory type with a sample of 390 people by purposive sampling. The study was collected using a Likert-style questionnaire and analyzed by SEM method. Exogenous latent variables 7 indicators, endogenous latent variables 6 indicators and endogenous variables 3 indicators. Outer models and inner models meet for SEM analysis. The maximum contribution of each managerial characteristic variable is 93.1% for the indicator of market opportunity identification, the strategic orientation variable is 96.1% for the indicator of making unique products and the BMT performance variable is 97.5% for the sales indicator. Managerial characteristics had a significant positive direct effect on strategic orientation of 22.1%. Managerial characteristics did not have a significant positive direct effect on BMT performance of 7.6%. Strategic orientation has a significant positive direct effect on BMT performance by 32.9%.</em></p><p><em><br /></em></p><p>Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menentukan efek langsung dan tidak langsung dari karakteristik manajerial pada kinerja BMT melalui orientasi strategis.

Insight Into

Thermoelectrics, an energy-conversion technology, has been developed for its potential to support portable electronics with an innovative power source. Primarily focusing on the metropolitan market in Thailand, the study, thus, aimed at the market insight into portable electronics users’ characteristics and opinions of thermoelectric-generator (TEG) technology commercialization. The business research was conducted to analyze their behaviors for power-supply lacking problems, encountering heat or cold sources, purchasing decision for a TEG-based charger and key decision factors. For practical applications, an innovative TEG-based charger should be more flexible by harnessing various heat or cold sources from ambient situations to generate electrical power.
