Abstract

Using data from a survey of enterprises in the Gdansk province, we develop a logit model to explain why some SMEs are exporters and others are not. The results indicate that knowledge of competing firms, a large share of the domestic market and preparedness for the accession of Poland to the EU are important drivers of export propensity.
