Structural and economic performance of the meat processing industry in the Central Europe

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The food industry is one of the world´s most important industries with significant impacts on the world economy. Branch “Processing and preserving of meat and production of meat products”, NACE Rev. 2 (Code C101) is the key branch of the food industry in the Czech Republic. The problem of this branch in the Czech Republic is its low competitiveness. This is the main reason why this branch is analyzed in the paper. The aim of the paper is to evaluate the development of key structural and economic indicators of the meat processing industry in all Central European countries. Moreover, Germany and Austria, as the main trade partners of the Czech Republic, are also compared with the Central European region. The purpose of the paper is to define the position of the Czech meat processing industry towards its main trade partners. The paper is based on the comparative analysis of structural indicators (number of enterprises, number of persons employed per enterprise), economic features (investment, production value, gross value added) and personnel costs analysis. The evaluation covers the time period 2008 – 2012. The main data source for the analysis is the database of the Eurostat structural business statistics. For a better comparability and relevance of the result, most indicators in branch “Processing and preserving of meat and production of meat products” are calculated per person employed. The indicators are evaluated over time though horizontal analysis and indexes. The results of the comparison show some differences between countries. Except Germany and Austria, the Czech Republic has the highest labour productivity; Slovakia and Poland have the lowest. More in-depth results of the structural and economic analysis in this branch are described and discussed in this article.
