Abstract: The paper proposes an analysis of the traditional products market on the European level, with focus on the concentration degree calculated with the Herfindahhl-Hirschman methods and the Gini- Struck Coefficient. One described and analysed the main categories of traditional produce encountered on the European community and extra-community level, a special section being dedicated to Romania. The concentration of the EU community market in the domain of traditional agro-food production is moderate, with growth trends, which requires an appropriate approach from the part of small and medium enterprises. The market of traditional products in Romania, characterised by a lower concentration degree compared to the community market, may be accessible to domestic producers.
