    El principal objetivo de este trabajo es averiguar en qué medida el hecho de que una empresa sea exportadora tiene consecuencias sobre su rendimiento. El caso de estudio, elaborado a partir de la base de datos ARDAN, se encuadra dentro de la región española de Galicia. El período temporal comprende desde el año 2002 hasta 2013. La muestra recoge únicamente PYMEs. El análisis empírico parte de un conjunto de variables empresariales ligadas a la gestión, a factores fijos como la localización, y a la coyuntura económica. Los resultados obtenidos con las técnicas de análisis aplicadas no son concluyentes y queda el camino abierto a nuevas investigaciones.
