Abstract

The wine sector in Europe has undergone a major change of trend in recent years, especially in Spain. On the one hand, the surface area has been reduced, but the production has been maintained by restructurings and improvements made in exploitation techniques. On the other hand, consumption has diminished causing a significant increase in competition. The Spanish wine sector is formed mainly by small and medium-sized firm, which is representative of the size of existing companies in Europe. This article aims to analyze the relationships between the competitive strategy, resources and capabilities of the firms, analyzing their technological and managerial capabilities, with business performance. 339 companies of the wine sector in Spain have been studied, differentiating between individual firms, cooperatives and mercantile companies. The results reveal that resources and capabilities along with strategies define competitive advantage, but their relationship and importance is different for each type of company.

在业务、能力和战略上的竞争优势。西班牙葡萄酒行业的一般表现因素是什么?

近年来，欧洲的葡萄酒行业发生了重大变化，尤其是在西班牙。一方面，表面积减少了，但由于改造和改进了开采技术，生产得以维持。另一方面，消费减少导致竞争显著增加。西班牙葡萄酒行业主要由中小型公司组成，这是欧洲现有公司规模的代表。本文旨在分析企业的竞争战略、资源和能力，分析其技术和管理能力与企业绩效之间的关系。对西班牙葡萄酒部门的339家公司进行了研究，对个别公司、合作社和商业公司进行了区分。研究结果表明，资源和能力与战略一起决定了竞争优势，但它们之间的关系和重要性对于不同类型的公司是不同的。
