| Summary: | Conventional methods for assessing competitiveness capture a limited reflection of market
adaptability. This limitation needs to be addressed in light of the volatile geopolitical context
and shifting trade policies, which shape an environment in which resilience is a fundamental
component of competitiveness. This paper contributes to the literature by introducing tradeadjusted elasticities that capture domestic market adaptability. The objective of this research
extends beyond developing a novel framework to demonstrate broader implications; it argues
for the urgency of aligning market adaptability with strategic resource management to
reinforce competitiveness. The European Union's vitiviniculture sector was examined as a
case study, with market responsiveness being evaluated through production volumes, trade
flows, and unit export values. Data collected from FAOSTAT and the International Trade
Centre were used to compute the elasticities. Research findings can support decision-makers
in adopting policy measures to enhance competitiveness through targeted interventions that
strengthen the adaptability of domestic markets to the dynamic value chain reconfigurations.
