There are three limitations of this study. First, the sample size is small and biased toward small companies. Second, the analysis was carried out in only five types of food-products manufacturing companies in three European countries. Third, the majority of the respondents were top managersdsuch as CEOs and general managersdwhich might have resulted in biased responses to some of the questions, such as whether a lack of the “commitment of the top management” was a barrier to the FQM system. These limitations may be taken into account in the interpretation of the findings. The small sample size and the low response rate affects the generalization of the results. Hence, a future study will be carried out to extend this feasibility study to other European SMEs from diverse food sectors.
