Spanish Abstract: El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la relacion que existe entre la rentabilidad economica de las empresas manufactureras y la integracion vertical, asi como conocer cuales son las caracteristicas que determinan que una empresa tome la decision de integrarse verticalmente. De los resultados obtenidos podemos destacar los siguientes aspectos: en primer lugar, la integracion vertical de las empresas de la industria agroalimentaria es determinante de la rentabilidad economica y; en segundo lugar, tambien hemos comprobado la existencia de una relacion directa entre la integracion vertical y la especificidad, mostrando que las empresas con productos y activos mas especificos tienen una mayor facilidad de atenuar los efectos de una situacion economica adversa. English Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between the profitability of manufacturing companies and the vertical integration and know what are the characteristics that determine a company's decision to integrate vertically. From the results obtained we highlight the following aspects: first, vertical integration of these firms has determined its economic profitability; second, we have also demonstrated the existence of a direct relationship between integration and specificity, and can thus state that firms who manufacture more specific, differentiated products have a greater chance of diminishing the effects of an adverse economic situation.
