Summary/Abstract: This paper analyses the evolution of research on consumer protection in the agri-food sector through a bibliometric approach based on data collected from the Web of Science Core Collection. The search was conducted on July 1, 2026, for the period 1976-2026, using the keywords “consumer protection and food”. A total of 4125 publications were identified and analysed according to research areas, publication years, countries and scientific collaborations. In order to obtain a clearer view of the structure of the field, the bibliographic data were also processed using VOSviewer, which was used to create maps of keyword co-occurrence and collaboration networks. The results show that this topic is mainly linked to food science, environmental sciences and nutrition, while the number of publications has increased especially in recent years. The analysis also highlights the importance of food safety, health and consumer behaviour as central topics in the literature.
