Analysis of the economy of nutrition in the Serbian Armed Forces using the benchmarking method

Abstract

Using the benchmarking analysis of microeconomic production entities, the author compares the military restaurant operations with the operations of four economic entities engaged in providing food services, seeking to improve the economy of nutrition in the Serbian Armed Forces. The comparison of the elements of the cost price of the daily food ration yields the data that indicate the necessary steps to be taken if the survival of military restaurants within the defense system is to be ensured.
