© The Author(s) 2020. We provide a literature review and a conceptual framework on informal cross border trade in Sub-Saharan Africa. Informal cross border trade (ICBT) refers to commercial exchanges conducted across borders by individuals operating as unregistered sole traders. ICBT is a burgeoning part of the informal markets in Sub-Saharan Africa and its existence and persistence carry substantial socio-economic implications. We use “summarizing” and “delineating” techniques to discuss seven themes of ICBT, and cast them as the manifestations of a substratum marketing system - a foundational structure instead of an auxiliary system. We underline implications for scholarship and for policymakers and non-governmental organizations charged with formulating initiatives to manage both ICBT and formal markets.

Accelerating food prices during the past few years have focused renewed attention on the food marketing system. In particular, concern has been expressed regarding increased costs of food marketing. Producers and consumers alike tend to point an accusing finger at the marketing system for extracting an undue portion of the food dollar.As evidenced by activities of various consumer groups, the milk marketing system has not escaped this scrutiny. Recent research efforts have centered around attempts to evaluate the system's efficiency. In short, concerns are usually expressed in terms of trying to understand or evaluate pricing behavior and market performance.

The authors examine forces, policy failures, and the ensuing war and devastation of the marketing system of the former Yugoslavia. They provide an overview of the region and discuss food marketing's contributions to recovery. The authors then describe food-marketing institutions that have emerged from destruction and suggest some successful cases and best practices that can be leveraged to sustain peace and prosperity in the war-ravaged Balkans, as well as the broader global community.

Knowledge of the lead-lag relationships among the retail, wholesale, and farm level prices of a livestock commodity is of obvious importance both in econometric model building and in evaluation of packers' and retailers' margins for that commodity. Though the lead-lag relationships for beef prices have been investigated in several previous studies (Barksdale et al.; Franzmann and Walker; King; Miller; National Commission on Food Marketing), the only known previous study of the lead-lag relationships for pork is that made by the National Commission on Food Marketing (hereafter abbreviated NCFM). As that study used data for 1962-1965, changes in the pork marketing system in subsequent years may have in turn occassioned changes in the lead-lag relationships. The changes in the pork marketing system include changes in market structure at the farm, packer, and retail levels, increased use of formula pricing, and the demise of terminal markets, among others. Also, as discussed hereafter, the statistical method used in the NCFM analysis of lead-lag relationships involved certain problems which may invalidate the conclusions drawn in that study.

The Relationship

The effects of customers' higher dependence on a supplier as in a partnership on the customers' satisfaction was investigated. Data were collected from 409 intermediary customers in a marketing system. A regression model was used to quantify the relationship between the customers' dependence on the manufacturer and the customers' satisfaction. As hypothesized, the results suggest an inverse relationship between dependence on a supplier and customers' satisfaction; however, only 1% of the variance in customers' satisfaction is explained by their dependence on the supplier.
