Abstract

The investment in the Romanian food sector represents an opportunity for foreign companies due to the available natural resources, to the large number of consumers or to Romania’s European status. Agriculture, food processing and marketing are characterized by different percentages of foreign investment. Romanian agriculture is characterized by a continuous foreign capital infusion. The recent farmland purchase liberalization will constitute a supplementary motivation for foreign investors. The article proposes a short assessment of foreign investment in the local food retail sector and it highlights the main points of interest for foreign investment. The materials used were: statistical data, information from national and European databases, official statements made by community and national bodies, articles and scientific papers, specialized media information.
