Abstract
Agricultural and food policies have been stable in Finland for some years. Neither agriculture nor the food industry have needed to redefine strategies, but as EU accession changes the policy environment, strategies must also change. Strategies for the food industry are defined through a taxonomy of competitive advantage based on cross-sectional firm-level data. Six clusters emerged. The largest firms seem to follow either a differentiation strategy competing with a wide product range or a distributor-oriented push strategy competing with fewer products. Closer integration of the Finnish food chain will be essential in the EU single market. Copyright 1995 by Oxford University Press.
