The Warehouse Receipt System in terms of Olive Oil Producers in Turkey

23256

the aim of this study is to determine the views of the warehouse receipt system and the expectations of olive oil producers in Turkey. To carry out the research, 53 randomly selected olive oil firms were visited, and through face-to-face meetings with the managers the relevant questionnaires were filled in. The five-point Likert Scale was used to measure the producers’ views regarding the warehouse receipt system. The analysis of the variance, the Kruskall-Wallis and the Chi-Square tests were used in order to analyse difference between the groups of managers in terms of their views of licensed warehousing. As a result of the research, it was determined that in general, olive oil producers have no knowledge about the warehouse receipt system and its functioning. In order to both implement legal regulations and to ensure the expected benefits from the system, it was recommended to inform all the stakeholders in the sector on the issues related to the system.
