When we consider the number of non-agricultural business firms, the situation
concerning purchase level in view of the LII is 0.19 and of the ELII is 0.22. In what
concerns the activity sector, Agriculture, Manufacturing Industry, Wholesale Commerce
and Personal Services behave similarly to the whole of the business firms (very weak).
The remaining sectors presented higher values. The situation regarding sales level in
view of the LII is 0,50 and of the ELII is 0,62. In what concerns the activity sector, only
the Construction sector recorded a similar behaviour to the whole of the business firms
(moderate and strong). Wholesale Commerce and Manufacturing Industry presented
lower values. Agriculture, Retail Commerce, Hotels and Restaurants, Transport
Financial Activities, Public Administration and Personal Services (strong and very
strong), on the contrary, registered higher values.
In terms of the bivariate analysis, the variable influencing purchases for the whole of the
business firms is the Organization Type, regarding both Zone (A+B) and Zone
(A+B+C). When one considers the Retail Commerce sector separately, one concludes
that the variables influencing both Zones’ integration are the Business Firm Size, the
Organization Type and the Business Firm Location. The variables influencing sales for
the whole of the business firms are the Business Firm Size, Organization Type and
Business Firm Location, regarding both Zone (A+B) and Zone (A+B+C). The Business
Firm Location variable also influences sales when only Zone (A+B+C) is taken into
consideration. When one considers the Wholesale Commerce sector separately, one
concludes that no other variables influences local integration. (see tables 6 and 7).
