The purpose was to highlight the link between Romanian traditional products-traditional food technologies - agritourism development, finding at the same time a way of regionalization of traditional food technologies and gastronomic agritourism. Therefore, capitalizing the potential of the space, mentioned above, will increase the chances in the development of certified traditional products and agritourism, revaluating the traditional food technologies, even if Romania experience its debut phase. The study focuses on the analysis and interpretation of the legislative framework concerning the Romanian traditional products and National Register Of Traditional Products (RNPT) according to Order no. 724/2013 of 29 July, 2013; the geographic distribution of products, their mapping and matching with the identification, interpretation and comparison of certain scientific ideas about traditional occupations, aspects of history and ethnology, features of landscape, etc. In the end, we have to admit that, as far as we know, the Romanian literature does not cover studies focused on our research idea, the majority analyzing the national market of traditional products in the EU.
