Purpose Popularity of organic food and products is growing across the globe due to rising awareness towards health environment, leading quality life. However, multitude challenges associated with purchase consumption remain insufficiently addressed within context developing nations, such as India. This study attempts fill this gap by identifying crucial barriers analyzing them further establish contextual relationships among them. Design/methodology/approach In total, 18 identified a literature review are classified into 6 major (constructs) using exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Further, fuzzy decision-making trial evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) approach employed relegate these sub-barriers cause-and-effect group. Moreover, causal also established assist producers processing industries in strategies overcome barriers. Findings The results indicate that “acceptability,” “preferability” “reachability” most prominent “reachability’ cause group barrier, while “acceptability” effect barrier. “Usualness,” “visibility” “readiness” exhibit significant consumption.

Abstract This study represents an empirical, comprehensive investigation of two different inter‐organisational collaborative approaches, offering a novel perspective on circular business models in the modern economy. In this vein, we explore how open innovation strategies foster implementation economy practices within supply chain and ecosystem. addition, identify characterise stakeholders' roles facilitating translation principles into viable business. An inductive theorising approach was employed, leveraging explorative multiple case methodology. Data were collected from 13 organisations involved networks, designed to establish upcycling recover waste food beverage industry. A critical realist philosophical positioning underpinned researchers' data collection analysis. As result, outline nature approaches pursue regenerative production system through strategies: ecosystem architecture. The characterisation coordinator orchestrator is also highlighted our findings. sum, contributes literature by unveiling role fostering development. From practical standpoint, it offers insights for managers sustainability‐oriented companies willing implement practices.
