Abstract

Resource Based View, or company internal resources analysis, is important for a successful organizational strategy formulation to build a competitive advantage. For this purpose, this study aimed to identify and analyze the existing tangible and intangible resources, independent of people, in the Serra Gaucha wine industry, investigating what of these resources support the researched companies’ strategies. A qualitative exploratory research, multicase study type, with in-depth interviews with senior executives of the selected companies was used to collect the information. To support the research, a resources matrix, adapted from Saraiva (2007), was used for responses tabulation. Study results highlight the existing resources in the investigated companies such as brands and contracts, technology, land and natural resources, plant units, financial resources and raw material quality. Brands were mentioned by all organizations confirming that organizations who use and explore effectively these resources have a competitive advantage in the market.
