The scope of this article is an inter-industry study of the Swedish Wood Manufacturing Sector (WMS), examined from the perspective of the Structure-Conduct-Performance (SCP) paradigm in the theoretical field of Industrial Organization. The four research questions are: (1) identify the industries within the sector, (2) construct a contextually adapted SCP model and form the basis for hypotheses of relationships between the different variables in the model, (3) establish quantitative correlations between the variables, and finally (4) present a basically qualitative, explanatory interpretive analysis.The empirical investigation is a total population study of 311 firms. Nine industries are identified, and an SCP model is presented including four explanatory variablesexposure to international competition, value-added scope, domestic demand growth potential and (domestic industry) seller concentrationand two performance variablesindustry profitability (ROA) and industry growth.The combined qualitative and quantitative explanatory analysis identifies some important relationships in the SCP model. The most prominent findings are the strong negative relationships between exposure to international competition and industry profitability and industry growth. Another finding is that strong positive relationships are found between the degree of value-added scope and industry profitability and industry growth.

Firm performance is fundamental to businesses considering its role in assisting organisations to realize their goals and achieve successes. Consumer goods manufacturing industry in Nigeria are experiencing decline in performance like profitability, market share, sales growth, competitive advantage, and productivity resulting from poor application of entrepreneurial orientation measures. This study examined the interaction between entrepreneurial orientation and market share of selected quoted consumer goods manufacturing companies in Nigeria.The study adopted cross sectional survey research design. The population of the study was 1,551of twelve (12) quoted consumer goods manufacturing companies in Nigeria. Total enumeration was used to sample the entire population. A self-developed structured and validated questionnaire was used for data collection. The Cronbach’s alpha ranges between 0.721 and 0.892. The response rate was 90.5%. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (Multiple and Hierarchical regression analysis).Findings revealed that entrepreneurial orientation components had significant influence on market share of selected quoted consumer goods companies in Nigeria (Adj. R2 = 0.791; F (5,441) = 339.129, p= 0.000). The study concluded that entrepreneurial orientation (innovativeness, competitive aggressiveness, proactiveness, risk-taking and planning flexibility) had significant effect on market share of selected quoted consumer goods companies in Nigeria and recommended that managers of selected quoted consumer goods manufacturing companies should practice entrepreneurial orientation ideologies to be able to be proactive and competitive enough to further boost the market portion of quoted consumer goods companies.

“…Market share provides a clear indication of a firm's standing in its market. According to Darmon (2013), market share measures a company's market penetration, and, to some extent, the selling unit is responsible for it. Darmon (2013) stated that competitive sales performance constitutes a natural benchmark for evaluating selling units' market performances.…”

In numerous sectors, the intense global competition has resulted in a wave of mergers and acquisitions over the years. A company with the aim to remain in the race almost has to merge, buy, orally with another company. Another alternative is to expand and grow the organisation internally, e.g. diversifying, building completely new mills to new markets. Lack of adopting valid and effective growth strategies has been a problem for small and medium scale enterprises leading to a decline in their overall performance. The study thus evaluated the effect of growth strategy and performance of selected small and medium scale enterprises in Anambra State, Nigeria.The study employed a cross-sectional survey research design. The Cross-Sectional survey research design was adopted to obtain information from the focus population concerning the current status of the phenomena through primary data collection. The population for the research comprised of selected small and medium scale enterprises that were registered with SMEDAN and operate in Anambra State, Nigeria. The total number of registered SMEs with SMEDAN as of 2017 was 1,504. The sample size for the study was obtained using the research advisors table . Based on a confidence level of 95 and the level of precision of 5% the samples size is 322 but with the addition of 30% for non-response rate, the sample was given thus as 418. The addition of 30% to the sample size is to ensure that the response rate of the study is attained significantly. Making provision for the non-response rate allows the researcher to improve the rate of response for the survey. The findings of the study revealed that there is a relationship between the two variables. Concerning the exact effect of the penetration strategies on market share, the r 2 = 0.452 shows the extent to which the penetration strategies explain the variation in market share of the selected small and medium scale enterprises. The coefficient also revealed that there is a positive relationship between the penetration strategies and the market share of the selected small and medium scale enterprisesThe study recommended that penetration strategies should be given adequate attention and consideration by different small and medium-sized enterprises to reap benefits. Penetration strategies which are an effective tool for achieving better performance over rival firms should be adequately implemented by the organization.
