The theory aimed at elucidating the coopetitive phenomenon still falls short in explaining the factors governing the management of tensions and conflicts, above all explaining how the coopetitive paradox manifests in small and medium-sized enterprises. Recognizing this knowledge gap, the research set out to identify the sources of tensions emerging during coopetitive interactions among exporting SMEs in the Ecuadorian agroindustry. The study also sought to understand the factors determining the magnitude of these tensions and the circumstances that facilitate or impede their management. Employing a qualitative approach, this research was carried out using multiple case studies involving fifteen experts in strategic management, and 54 executives from 25 companies in the banana, cocoa, shrimp, and flowers subsectors. The findings reveal that tensions and conflicts arising from coopetitive inter-business relationships stem from organization-specific unilateral factors, as well as by external circumstances associated with sector and market dynamics. The study underscores the significance of enhancing the capacity to manage coopetitive tensions, even in the presence of conflicts, rivalries, and divergent interests. This necessitates stakeholders establishing new relationships grounded in trust, mutual respect, and acknowledgment of legitimate interests, with the objective of resource-sharing, cost reduction, and capitalizing on emerging business opportunities. The practical implications of the findings highlight missed opportunities for growth and continuous improvement, as well as reducing the ability to create shared value, making them more vulnerable to fluctuations in international markets.
