Entering this market required a multitude of capabilities at firm, sector and national levels. Several of these capabilities were absent or weak in the domestic market when the new activity kicked off. The paper analyzes how the capabilities of individual firms and the industry at large co-evolved and the role of various actors in the ‘market formation’ process., JEL Classification Codes: O12, O13, O19, 経済学 / Economics}, title = {Global Value Chains and Market Formation Process in Emerging Export Activity: Evidence from Ethiopian Flower Industry} }
