GLOBALIZATION PROCESSES IN POLISH FOOD INDUSTRY.

- Abstract
The main aim of this paper is to determine if there is any correlation between the degree of globalization of individual sectors of the Polish food industry and their productivity. In the first stage of the research, 17 sectors of the food industry were divided into 3 groups: with a very high degree (Group 1), high degree (Group 2) and low degree (Group 3) of globalization. This division was based on the share of global companies (trans-national corporations) in the value of sales revenues in individual branches of the food industry. Then, the author compared the groups with the use of traditional factors (labour productivity, land productivity) and multi-dimensional productivity factors from the Data Envelopment Analysis. The research indicates that the sectors with very high and high degrees of globalization report definitely higher labour productivity and wages and salaries, with a slightly higher DEA-measured productivity but lower fixed asset productivity.
