The main focus of this study is to determine the current status of the Philippine banana production when it comes to Global Value Chain. Specifically, this study aimed to determine the characteristic of banana production in the Philippines that engage in export; to determine the value chain of Cavendish banana in Japan, Korea and China; to analyze the effect of global value chain in Philippine banana exports in Japan, Korea and China in terms of volume of banana exports used for manufacturing, volume of banana used for consumption, and production; to determine the competitive advantage of the Philippines in other Cavendish banana exporter countries in Japan, Korea and China in terms of volume, location and price.
Results revealed that most of the Philippines' Cavendish banana production was for exports, and those top importing countries were China, Japan and Korea, and mostly consumed in fresh and some of it was used for manufacturing. Using the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression the result showed that China consumption, Japan consumption, Korea consumption, Korea manufacturing and production have significant relationship with banana exports. Philippines do have a competitive advantage among the exporters in each of the three countries: China, Japan and South Korea.
First reason was that only Philippines can produce a large number of Cavendish bananas which most of it was exported to other countries. Another thing was that Philippines has an agreement between those countries when it comes to trading, these agreements are Japan- Philippine Economic Agreement Partnership and ASEAN Free Trade Area which supports the local trade and manufacturing in all ASEAN countries.
