Montenegro is engaging in efforts to promote its regional culinary traditions and tourism sectors. Local initiatives include the operation of traditional mountain restaurants, such as Zagarački katun on Lukavica mountain, which faces environmental and infrastructural challenges including drought and poor road conditions.

On a broader scale, the country is hosting the International Prosciutto Fair (MESAP 2026) in Cetinje to preserve and promote high-quality cured meat products. Additionally, the Tourism Organization of Tivat is participating in the IFTM Top Resa international tourism fair in Paris to expand the French market, following an 18% increase in overnight stays by French tourists in Tivat earlier in 2026.
