Abstract
The article employs a double-bootstrap data envelopment analysis to measure the technical efficiency of meatpacking companies in Greece and identify its determinants over the period of 1994–2007. The rationale for adopting this method is to yield bias-corrected efficiency scores of firms and robust inferences about its drivers. The empirical results indicate that the typical meatpacker of our sample operates with 89% efficiency and performance is higher for firms that are members of a group and adopt a strategy for increasing the skill of employees, while larger and older firms operate at lower efficiency.
