“…The presence of personnel trained and qualified in technological management will allow an efficient use of the different technological tools made possible by the Internet (Peansupap and Walker, 2006). In spite of this, the organizations of the olive oil sector generally lack internal personnel trained and qualified ad hoc in the management of these technologies (Fernández-Uclés et al, 2016). An alternative to this problem is outsourcing, to external professionals dedicated to this function (He et al, 2017).…”

Olive oil is one of the main agricultural products of the countries that make up the Mediterranean basin. The low profitability of this sector of activity and the growing challenges of an increasingly turbulent market force the sector to search for more efficient organization. The aim of this paper is to determine the organisational and technological factors associated with the most economically efficient Tunisian olive-growing organisations. To this end, firstly the Data Envelopment Analysis method has been used to establish a hierarchy of the most efficient organizations. Secondly, the Qualitative Comparative Analysis method has been used, which allows us to establish the relationships of variables that explain the highest levels of economic efficiency. The results obtained show that the academic training of the top manager, training in information technology, the age of the organisation and the existence of plans and budget items for the adoption of information and communication technologies are variables that explain this greater efficiency.

“…The literature highlights the key role of innovations such as the Internet and its array of applications in business activity as ways of tackling these problems . Indeed, in response to the problems facing the organic food sector, online sales channels offer firms a new, low-cost way of communicating (Gunelius, 2011), enhancing trust and interaction with consumers (Lai, Tong, & Lai, 2011) and improving firms' competitive position (Wei, Zhang, & Sutanto, 2013;Fern andez, Bernal, Mozas, Medina, & Moral, 2015). These solutions are particularly relevant to products that have typically been ignored by traditional sales channels (Wei et al, 2013), which is the case of organic products.…”

“…In general, olive oil cooperatives are characterised by a disassociation with the end market. This disassociation is a serious problem for the profitability of the sector, where the bulk of the business activity centres on storage and personal consumption (Fern andez et al, 2015). Despite technological development and the penetration of information and communication technologies (ICTs) amongst firms in the olive oil sector, agri-food cooperatives lag behind in their adoption of these technologies.…”

Spanish agri-food producers, particularly organic producers, have faced commercial problems for years. Websites are able to combine informative, relational and transactional functions. This ability makes them attractive sales channels in sectors such as the organic agri-food sector, which has traditionally had major commercial shortcomings in these three areas. This study is built on this premise. The study explored whether organic agri-food producers and conventional producers differ in terms of their use of websites as a sales channel and their degree of interaction with users. The extended model of Internet commerce adoption (eMICA) and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) were used. Other statistical techniques were also used. The fieldwork began with a sample of 998 producers (239 organic and 759 conventional). The results reveal differences between organic and conventional olive oil producers regarding website adoption and use. In terms of attracting website visits, the results also reveal the relevance of being an organic producer and having a capitalist or cooperative company structure.

“…Según Izquierdo, Martínez y Jiménez (2010), multitud de empresas deciden ofrecer también sus productos o servicios a través de este canal, puesto que, además de eliminar las barreras geográficas, otorga sustanciosos beneficios. Entre esos beneficios la literatura consultada resalta los siguientes: reducción de los costes de transacción (Strader y Shaw, 1997), incremento de la eficiencia en la cadena de valor (Evans y Wurster, 1997), ayuda comercial (Houghton y Winklhofer, 2004;Mozas-Moral, Moral-Pajares, Medina-Viruel y Bernal-Jurado, 2016) y garantía de una propensión exportadora más activa (Alonso, 1994;Fernández, Bernal, Mozas, Medina, y Moral, 2015). En contraposición, para Ganotakis y Love (2010), el uso del comercio electrónico no influye en el impulso de entrada en los mercados de exportación, pero la extensión de su uso se asocia positivamente con el aumento de la intensidad de exportación.…”

Resumen. Este trabajo tuvo como objetivo determinar los factores internos (tamaño, presupuesto de innovación, ventas en el exterior, incremento de la exportación y comercio electrónico) y los factores externos (sector económico) que condicionan la propensión exportadora de las empresas de Economía Social. Se dimensionó la propensión exportadora utilizando el método inductivo y aplicando varios análisis estadísticos (inferencias y análisis clúster) a una muestra de cooperativas y sociedades laborales en un límite territorial, Andalucía, y en dos momentos puntuales del tiempo, 2002 y 2013. Como resultado se identificó dos segmentos de empresas que, una vez caracterizados, proporcionan modelos de exportación. Los resultados probaron disparidad en dos clúster andaluces de Economía Social con actividad exterior, y un incremento de la propensión exportadora, especialmente, entre las entidades del sector primario y de mayor dimensión empresarial.

This study aimed to determine the internal factors (size, budget innovation, overseas sales, increase export and e-commerce) and external factors (economic sector) that determine the export propensity of Social Economy companies. The export propensity was sized using the inductive method and applying various statistical analyzes (inferences and cluster analysis) to a sample of cooperatives and labour societies in a territorial limit, Andalusia, and two specific points in time, 2002 and 2013. As a result, two segments of companies were identified that once they were characterized, provide us export models. The results proved disparity in two Andalusian Social Economy clusters with external activity and increased export propensity, especially among the entities of the primary sector and with a greater business dimension.
