Résumé

This paper examines the importance of the multiproduct firm in Spanish exports, with special attention on the connection betwe en trade margins, productivity and trade costs. A few firms dominat e trade; they are more productive, larger, pay higher wages and export more products than the rest of exporters. Firm productiv ity is positively associated with export size. The most productive exporters sell more products to more countries and have higher sales per product-country. The impact of productivity on firm exports exhi bits a similar magnitude on each trade margin. When we examine the impact of trade costs on Spanish exports across destinations, the impact of distance is slightly larger on the extensive margin, while the impact of exchange rate movements is slightly larger on the intensive margin.
