Abstract

La caracterización del mercado de las arepas de maíz en la capital colombiana puede generar inquietudes, pues elementos como las tendencias de consumo y los canales de distribución harán un aporte significativo al sector productivo de la ciudad que esté interesado en esta actividad económica. Su representación en la canasta familiar lo hace accesible a todos los niveles socioeconómicos, pues existen diferentes formatos y precios que el consumidor puede elegir. Al respecto, en cuanto a la metodología, en la primera parte del trabajo de campo se elaboró un estudio basado en un diseno descriptivo de tipo cuantitativo, empleando un muestreo no probabilístico con 384 unidades de información; en la segunda parte se desarrolló una observación de carácter cualitativo utilizando bitácoras para la recolección de la información. Los resultados del estudio determinan rasgos representativos que caracterizan las tendencias de consumo y de los canales de distribución presentes en el mercado de la arepa de maíz en la ciudad de Bogotá, D. C.******The characterization of the maize arepas market in the Colombian capital can generate concerns, since elements such as consumption trends and distribution channels will make a significant contribution to the city’s productive sector that is interested in this economic activity.
