This paper reports an empirical study of Peruvian fresh grapes exporters with the aim of delineating the behavioral and operational typology of their competitive intelligence practices. Cluster analysis was used as an exploratory tool to determine the correlation, if any, between the size of the company, grapes exports share of total exports, the percentage of the Red Globe variety in total grapes exports and the size of the grape farm with the typology and the average price received at export between August 2016 and July 2017. The behavioral and operational typology of competitive intelligence practices model, developed by Wright et al, (2012), was used. The findings reveal that exporters have a positive behavior towards competitive intelligence practices, but cannot make good use of them due to a lack of knowledge, and deficiencies in organization and in technological and IT systems su...
