Abstract

The aim of the present paper is to locate and analyse the factors affecting firms' economic behaviour in food products' sector, by collecting data from a large number of firms and indicators. A special focus concerning exporting activity took place, trying to disclose the factors that spur exports, as they are considered to be a synonym of economic growth and prosperity. Several methodological issues of exports' valuation were apposed and some strong conclusions were underlined as regard to the necessary infrastructure that a firm should develop, in order to grow, and to establish a dynamic exporting profile.
