The aim of this paper is to show the application and development of Internet and E-Commerce in the olive-oil sector of Puglia and to verify if companies are creating new network-like relations which can from a local productive system. In the first part theoretical aspects of competitive advantages from the New Technologies adoption are analyzed; in the second the results of a descriptive analysis based on a data-set of information at the firm level built up integrating interviews and balance sheets are discussed.
