Competitiveness is a general concept used to refer to market commitment to international competition. The purpose of this study is to analyze the trend in export volume and export value obtained by Indonesia and analyze the competitiveness of Indonesian coconut exports in the international market. The methods used in this study were descriptive analysis and RCA.
