Food Producers' Competitiveness Gap in Poland on the European Union Market
Journal Title: Acta Scientiarum Polonorum. Oeconomia - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
This article presents the gap in potential and competitive position of food producers in Poland as compared to selected the European Union countries. The timeframe of research covered the years 2005–2015. The conducted analyses indicate the positive phenomenon of a decreasing but, at the same time, a very clear distance between the competitive potential of food producers in Poland and European leaders. The productivity level of particular production factors indicates, at the same time, the fact that the least beneficial situation was recorded in the case of the productivity of human work. A definitely smaller competitive gap was present at the level of the capital’s productivity. The decreasing competitive gaps were also observed with regard to particular partial measures of the competitive position. The nearly double increase in the share of Polish food producers in intra-Community export was particularly beneficial. This was not reflected in a significant change of the competitive position of domestic food producers on the EU market with the low output level of this index.
