In the process of Slovenian integration to the EU food processing industry is confronted with considerable changes of political and economical, environment. At the enterprise level these changes demand capital investments and management strategies adjustments. Business performance analysis of the Slovenian food processing sector revealed unfavourable trends in the period between 1997 and 2000. Productivity, value added per employee and profitability indicators show constant deterioration during the analysed period. In the year 2000 for the first time the latter were below the average of the processing sector, while the other indicators were still superior. Identified deficits of the food industry's competitiveness elements predict a possibility of negative economic effects at actual accession of Slovenia to the EU.
