Abstract

Der Wandel der Produktions- und Nachfragebedingungen verlangt von den Unternehmen immer wieder Anpassungen ihrer Produktpalette. Die Mehrzahl der Unternehmen im verarbeitenden Gewerbe in Deutschland verfolgten dabei eine Spezialisierungsstrategie. Sie konzentrieren sich auf die Erstellung und Vermarktung immer weniger Produkte. Damit steigern diese Unternehmen vor allem ihre Produktivität. Unternehmen mit steigender Produktvielfalt, die eine Diversifizierungsstrategie verfolgen, erweisen sich dagegen bei Umsatz und Beschäftigung als deutlich wachstumsstärker.
