The purpose of this paper is to provide an adapted gravity model to measure the impact of the number of the internet users on food industry trade between OECD countries using both panel and cross-sectional data. The positive, significant and over time increasing effect of the internet on food industry exports confirm that the internet reduces market-specific entry costs for food industry exports.

The paper analyses the quality differentiation in Central and Eastern European countries (CEEC-14) and European Union (EU-15) using panel regressions. The hypotheses are based on supply-side factor endowment and economic geography, and demand-side level of economic development variables. The analysed is price-quality exporter specialization. The panel regression analysis confirms that the CEEC-14 quality differentiation on the EU-15 markets is explained by comparative advantages from the relative factor endowment.
