Su objetivo general es describir las interrelaciones entre las variables críticas que definen la Competitividad Internacional de las empresas del Centro-Occidente de México, que exportan productos porcicolas al mercado de la República Popular China. Se realizó una revisión teórica, donde se identificaron seis variables que impactan al sector y con base en la teoría se presentó la siguiente hipótesis general: las Empresas Porcícolas de la Región Centro-Occidente de México, incrementarán sus exportaciones al mercado de la República Popular China si elevan su Competitividad Internacional, la cual está determinada por la interrelación del precio, la calidad de sus productos, la tecnología, el capital humano capacitado, los canales de distribución y logística que eligen y la comunicación que utilizan para interactuar con sus clientes. Para poder medir la Competitividad, se utilizó un cuestionario compuesto por 153 items que se aplicaron a 16 empresas exportadoras identificadas del sector. Una vez procesada la información se utilizaron diferentes técnicas estadísticas. Con los resultados obtenidos se identificó el grado de correlación que existe entre las variables, así como el nivel competitivo del sector exportador.]]></p></abstract>

Its overall objective is to describe the interrelationships between the critical variables that define the Mexican Central Western International Competitiveness, which exports pork products to the Republic of China&#8217;s Market. A theoretical review was realized, where six variables that impact the industry where identified and based on the following general hypothesis is presented: the Mexican Central Western Pork Companies will increase their exports to the Republic of China&#8217;s Market if they raise their Competitiveness International, which is determined by the interplay of price, product quality, technology, human capital trained, distribution channels and logistics choosing and using communication to interact with their customers. To measure Competitiveness, a questionnaire with 153 items was applied to 16 exporting companies in the identified sector. Once the information was processed different statistical techniques were used. With the results obtained the degree of correlation between variables was identified as well as the competitive export sector.]]></p></abstract>
