Abstract

Rapid changes in trends and technological developments play a role in changes related to market demand. Often, a product line must be discontinued early due to sudden changes or shifts resulting from the emergence of new technological developments or new technological standards. Demand for newer models forces companies to launch new product lines and discontinue distribution or sales of existing ones. This phenomenon results in excess stock that ultimately leads to stagnation in warehouse inventory turnover, where this stagnant inventory storage causes additional costs for the company or becomes waste, and the company also experiences losses from this unsold inventory. This study aims to analyze the implementation of strategies and actions taken by companies, distributors, and retailers using a case study method to analyze best practices in managing end-of-cycle inventory for the company's sustainability and profitability. The findings in this research reveal that the implementation of reverse logistics in the retail of electronic industry has developed into an adaptive and dynamic system in which the continuous flow of information from the secondary market from the reverse logistics implementation drives and influence the change and the transformation on how the operational division identify, classify, and making decision on their excess inventories and dead stock moving forward.

Abstract

Ternate is celebrated for its historic spice trade and has recently adopted the Kota Rempah brand to promote its culinary heritage in support of sustainable tourism. This study examines 93 local MSMEs and their 48 unique gastronomic souvenirs—from nutmeg and kenari confections to seafood preserves—to evaluate their contributions to place identity and inclusive economic growth. Utilizing a qualitative case study design, data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with tourism office and Dekranasda officials, MSME owners, and field observations. Findings reveal that most enterprises cluster in urban districts, a diverse product range rooted in local ingredients, and strong stakeholder interest tempered by challenges in branding consistency, packaging, and geographic reach. The analysis highlights how culinary souvenirs function as cultural carriers, fostering emotional connections, longer visitor stays, and repeat visitation, while also empowering women led businesses and community livelihoods. To harness these opportunities, integrated policy measures are recommended, including shared packaging facilities, cohesive Kota Rempah branding guidelines, and expanded support for peripheral areas. Finally, pursuing geographic indication status for key spice products is proposed to protect authenticity, enhance market differentiation, and further advance sustainable tourism development in Ternate.

Abstract

Sustainable tourism can create a positive relationship between tourism and the local environment through three main dimensions: physical environment, socio-cultural sustainability, and economic sustainability. The local community plays an important role in supporting sustainable tourism. Saribu Gonjong Tourism Village (SARUGO), located in West Sumatra, is known for the Minangkabau community life, traditional Rumah Gadang houses, and distinctive cultural dances. This cultural potential needs to be preserved sustainably. However, the community’s role in supporting sustainable tourism is still not optimal, so a more focused Sustainable Tourism concept is needed. The research used a descriptive qualitative method with primary and secondary data collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. Saribu Gonjong Village was established in 2019 and is managed collaboratively by the local community, Pokdarwis (Tourism Awareness Group), and village leaders who actively preserve culture and develop tourism potential. The village also opens economic opportunities through homestays, crafts, and agro-tourism, although promotion and facilities need improvement. Capacity building, especially for the younger generation, is conducted through art and cultural training. With enhanced training and wider community involvement, Saribu Gonjong Tourism Village has the potential to become a leading, sustainable destination that improves the community’s welfare.

Abstract

Nagari Tuo Pariangan is an area in West Sumatra that maintains Minangkabau traditions. This area is believed to be the place where the Minangkabau civilization began. The unique geographical condition is an added value for Nagari Tuo Pariangan to become one of the priority tourism destinations in Tanah Datar Regency. This research aims to evaluate tourism development in the village based on the CBT stage framework prepared by the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and uses a qualitative approach. Based on the study's results, community-based tourism development in Nagari Tuo Pariangan can be categorized as a developing CBT because it almost fulfils every stage of development in CBT, even though each stage in community-based tourism development is not fully optimized, and there is still much to be addressed.  The development stage of CBT implementation in Nagari Tuo Pariangan is at the stage of market demand and marketing strategy. The stage that has not been carried out at this time is monitoring and evaluation. This study can show the advantages that make it an example for other regions and the shortcomings in optimizing Nagari Tuo Pariangan tourism.

Abstract

Indonesia’s culinary industry has grown significantly, especially among ventures that adopt unique concepts to attract consumers. One emerging trend is the “hidden gem” approach, where remote locations are embraced as part of a brand’s charm. In Bandung, a city known for its creative energy, the Dago Pakar area offers a perfect setting for such businesses. Hidden Farm Café exemplifies this trend, combining a secluded location with organic homemade meals and a cozy atmosphere that appeals to the growing demand for “healing” experiences. The Café leverages social media, particularly TikTok and Instagram, to reach wider audiences and promote its unique appeal. It has successfully attracted communities such as cyclists and young urbanites seeking authentic culinary destinations. However, this study finds that Hidden Farm Café’s digital marketing remains underutilized due to inconsistent content and weak social media strategy, limiting its outreach and growth potential. Despite these challenges, Hidden Farm Café showcases how culinary businesses can thrive off the beaten path through strong brand identity and targeted digital promotion. With improved digital marketing execution, the hidden gem model can offer a sustainable path for creative culinary ventures in Bandung and beyond.

Abstract

This research article examines the alignment of rural tourism development in the Jatigede Tourism Special Economic Zone (SEZ) with the Travel and Tourism Development Index (TTDI) indicators. The primary focus of the study is to evaluate the extent to which the SEZ development plan in this region accommodates principles of inclusive, sustainable, and competitive tourism, particularly in the context of villages affected by the construction of the Jatigede reservoir. Using a descriptive, exploratory, and explanatory approach, this study applies the TTDI framework to assess infrastructure, environmental sustainability, human resource capacity, socio-cultural dynamics, and local policy readiness. The findings indicate that the development planning of the Jatigede Tourism SEZ has strong potential to enhance rural tourism; however, further alignment with TTDI standards particularly regarding environmental considerations and local community participation is necessary. The study recommends a collaborative development model involving local governments, village communities, and investors to establish an SEZ that fosters local economic growth while preserving socio-cultural heritage. These recommendations are intended to serve as a strategic reference for policymakers to ensure that implementing the Jatigede Tourism SEZ aligns with TTDI principles and sustainable development goals.

Abstract

The Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector in Indonesia faces significant challenges in adopting sustainable practices amidst environmental issues like water scarcity and plastic waste, compounded by social and regulatory complexities. This study explores how Danone Indonesia’s B Corp certification, achieved in 2018, drives transformative sustainability in its operations. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research analyzes secondary data from company reports, B Corp assessments, and industry sources, focusing on CO2 emission reduction, water stewardship, circular economy initiatives, and employee engagement. Findings reveal that certification catalyzed measurable improvements, including a CO2 reduction roadmap, 50% reduction in water usage, 25% recycling rate for PET bottles, and a 95% employee engagement score, aligning with global sustainability standards. These outcomes demonstrate that B Corp certification can inspire systemic change in emerging markets, offering a model for balancing profit with purpose in Indonesia’s dynamic business landscape.

Abstract

This study explores the transformation of human capital in the food and beverage (F&B) sector within Lake Toba's cultural tourism ecosystem. The research addresses a core issue: the limited role of F&B workers who are still viewed as mere service executors rather than experience designers. The study aims to reposition human resources as integral actors in delivering emotional and cultural value through tourism services. A qualitative approach was applied using thematic analysis, involving interviews, field observations, and document reviews across key destinations. Findings reveal five dominant themes: technical rigidity, lack of storytelling ability, absence of emotional labor, weak strategic awareness, and institutional training gaps. These insights led to the development of a six-stage conceptual model titled "Journey of Experience Design by F&B Human Capital," outlining the path from role awareness to reflective service delivery. The study concludes that transforming service roles in cultural destinations requires more than skill development; it necessitates cultural narrative training and emotional intelligence. Recommendations include localized training frameworks, stakeholder collaboration, and storytelling integration into F&B operations. This study contributes both theoretically and practically to the advancement of human-centered service innovation in heritage-based tourism.
