Th e article deals with companies processing and producing dairy products and cheeses in the Czech market. Th e dairy industry is a crucial fi eld among the production of food products. On March 31, 2015 the milk quotas were cancelled. Th e impacts of their cancelation can bring danger for the dairy business but also provide some opportunities. Th erefore it is important that businesses are economically powerful and so are able to strengthen their competitive position. Th is article aims to analyse businesses to identify vulnerable groups of businesses and those groups whose welfare is not essentially jeopardized. Partially, the aim is to assess whether there are signifi cant diff erences in economic indicators among enterprises of the dairy industry (divided according to their size, ownership and subsidy drawing). At the same time the aim is to fi nd groups of dairy businesses from the set which are similar to each other and which diff er from other groups of companies and thus set their position in the Czech market. Over all there were 35 dairy milk businesses analysed in 2013. Th ere were statistically signifi cant diff erences in some economic indicators among corporations considering drawing grants, size, ownership structure and binding to primary production. According to the cluster analysis the large companies with foreign ownership can be considered as a potential threat and may aff ect the position and competitiveness of other businesses. Th e results indicate the endangered position of Czech medium-sized businesses as well as opportunities for stabilizing small businesses which specialize closely.

Abstract:The paper analyzes the main indicators of the economic position of companies in the field of food industry in Vojvodina. The examined nine-year period coincides with the final stage of the ownership transformation in the republic of Serbia. given the length of the examined period, a considerable devaluation of the national currency (60.6%) and a high inflation rate (125.7%), all values are shown in Euros. The increasing business activity in the period of interest is not accompanied by the appropriate financial effects. Food industry enterprises achieved a positive financial result for most of the years in the given period, but with modest profit rates (0.15-3.18%). net working capital covers only 42.5% in average of the base stock, indicating an unfavourable financial structure and serious liquidity problems. An unacceptably high level of indebtness has been achieved (58.1%), which significantly reduces financial results due to the high financing expense. A further increase of export, combined with the recapitalization by the owners and a partial refinancing of credits, is the way to the companies' financial recovery.

“…This problem had occurred also in the Czech Republic. As a result of current research (Putićová and Mezera, 2008), we can identify small enterprises active in the food industry as one of key actors influencing employment in rural areas (evidence from developed EU Member States). Despite massive shift from agriculture and food industry (caused also by productivity growth) to more profitable areas such as services, there is a need to consider the role of these industries in the Czech Republic (Čapkovičová, 2016).…”

New Member States have been part of the Single market since joining the European Union in 2004. This step brought various challenges in each of these countries because of appreciable difference in competitiveness compared to old EU Member States. This article puts to the test the competitiveness of the Czech meat industry. This is one of the most important parts of the agri-food production, which is still a very important part of regional economics in less developed regions. Thus, it represents cultural heritage of the countryside. The main aim is to investigate specific branches of the Czech meat industry according to their competitiveness on the Single market. In the article, we make conclusion on different states of the competitiveness of three main branches of the Czech meat industry, which represents 85.6% of the overall meat export. Conducted research provided information on positive change in the export during the observed period of time, but the comparison of absolute export and import numbers did not refer to a positive development of the Czech meat industry. Furthermore, we observed tendency to locate meat production near local markets and in developed regions.
