Another finding derived from analysis of variances show that gender difference is an important demographic
factor influencing local food. Gender should be taken into consideration while developing management strategies.
For instance males tend to be more loyal and the findings prove that they solely get back to the destinations to try
local food. Therefore food turns into a travel motivation for males and the females are more concerned to collect
information before their trips accordingly managements can direct their advertisement targeted to female tourists.
This study is not free from limitations first of all sample size is comparatively low and the field research was
conducted in December. The seasonality does not only affect tourist demand but also availability of various local
food. Therefore future studies that collect data during different studies and which uses larger samples might offer
more accurate results. Rather than a convenience sample future studies might also use a stratified sample for
comparable results among groups. It might also be interesting to identify experiential dimensions of local food
consumption of tourist in the future.
