Abstract
  • The impact of vertical integration (VI) on performance is an often-addressed topic in both management and economic studies. The contradicting conclusions based on different theoretical perspectives regarding this impact cause need for empirical studies. Empirical work, however, has lagged behind. In fact, few studies have in a convincing way demonstrated how VI affects performance. The barriers in conducting empirical studies of VI are multiple. The main purpose of this paper is to demonstrate ways of overcoming the difficulties facing empirical studies of VI. The empirical setting chosen for the study is the Norwegian fish processing industry. We examine to what extent VI is implemented in this industry, mainly upstream, towards the fishing fleet. The economic effect of VI is addressed.
