This study examined the link between environmental commitment and export performance in family firms in Poland. It found that strategic commitment to environmental issues encourages process innovation, which in turn increases export intensity, while product innovation does not. Quality certifications interact with the relationship between strategic commitment to environmental issues and product innovation. These findings have important theoretical implications and provide insights for stakeholders interested in sustainable practices of family firms.
Recognizing the extent of inconclusive findings in the environmental commitment - export performance nexus, this study examines this link in order to reduce theoretical ambiguity. The paper focuses on family firms in Poland and assesses the distinct rate of export intensity resulting from strategic commitment to environmental issues, through product innovation and process innovation. Analyzing a sample of 409 firms sourced from the World Bank Enterprise Survey database, the results indicate that strategic commitment to environmental issues encourages process innovation but not product innovation. In turn, process innovation increases export intensity while product innovation does not. It is also found that quality certifications interact with the relationship between strategic commitment to environmental issues and product innovation. These findings pose important theoretical implications and offer insights to stakeholders particularly interested in the sustainable practices of family firms.
