  • Market Size, Competition, and the Product Mix of Exporters
    American Economic Review 2014, 104(2): 495–536 http://dx.doi.org/10.1257/aer.104.2.495 Market Size, Competition, and the Product Mix of Exporters† By Thierry Mayer, Marc J. Melitz, and Gianmarco I. P. Ottaviano* We build a theoretical model of multi-product firms that highlights how competition across market destinations affects both a firm’s exported product range and product mix. We show how tougher competition in an export market induces a firm to skew its export sales toward its best performing products. We find very strong confirmation of this competitive effect for French exporters across export market destinations. Theoretically, this within-firm change in product mix driven by the trading environment has important repercussions on firm productivity. A calibrated fit to our theoretical model reveals that these productivity effects are potentially quite large. JEL D21, D24, F13, F14, F41, L11 ( ) Exports by multi-product firms dominate world trade flows. Variations in these trade flows across destinations reflect in part the decisions by multi-product firms to vary the range of their exported products across destinations with different mar- ket conditions.1 In this paper, we further analyze the effects of those export market conditions on the relative export sales of those goods: we refer to this as the firm’s product mix choice. We build a theoretical model of multi-product firms that high- lights how market size and geography the market sizes of, and bilateral economic ( distances to, trading partners affect both a firm’s exported product range and its ) exported product mix across market destinations.
