This study is engaged in the problems of competitiveness and the performance of the Czech food industry. Both these attributes are evaluated in the framework of the domestic manufacturing sector and market, as well as from the point of view of foreign trade. Input-output analysis was used to analyse the period 2000-2008, i.e., the period before and after the accession of the CZ to the EU. The SWOT analysis shows, among other, the occasions that could improve the current stagnant or rather decreasing situation of competitiveness of the food sector. The analysis demonstrated that the competitiveness is not in a critical situation. As it follows from the SWOT analysis, the reason of the stagnation is that the opportunities of the sector are not fully utilised. Food producers are facing some basic problems in the output sphere mainly in the domestic market.
