Jesmond Borg Bachelor’s Thesis Degree Programme in Hospitality Management 2016 Abstract Date 03.02.2017 Author(s) Jesmond Borg Degree programme B.A. Hospitality Management Report/thesis title Number of pages The success factors and the major challenges that Tal-Massar and appendix pages Winery in Gozo needs to address to develop the full potential of 42 + 13 wine tourism. This study focuses on the concept of wine tourism as a growing niche on the island of Gozo. Over the last decade, Gozo has seen a synergy between wine and the tourism industry which has led to the development of what is commonly known as wine tourism. As in other countries, wine tourism on this small island is leaving an impact on the social and economic aspects. This research aims to portray the success factors and the major challenges that Gozo needs to address to develop the full potential of this niche market. Since the Maltese islands have a tradition of wine- making, several critical factors will be considered in a Gozitan context to determine and assess Gozo’s potential. Within this framework, this study reviews and adds to the existing empirical literature on wine tourism while giving a brief description of the islands unique characteristics that play a vital role in this niche market. It also aims to compile the profile of the islands’ wine industry and examine the winemaker’s level of involvement with tourism as well as to explore the percep- tions of expanding the potential of wine tourism through online marketing.
