In this paper, firm-level panel data from Ghana is used to analyse the firm characteristics that are associated with exporting in the non-traditional agricultural and manufacturing sectors. The focus of the study is on the different relationships in different sectors. The findings show that the number of firms that specialise in exporting is relatively low. While for some sectors the high cost of imports reduces their likelihood to export, for others the use of high quality inputs facilitates exporting. The share of investment seems to have only a positive effect on exporting for agricultural processing. Based on this analysis the appropriateness of different export promotion measures is discussed.
