The aim of the paper is to compare the competitive positions of Poland and of six countries of the Western Balkans (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia) in their trade in agri-food products with the European Union (EU) in 2010–2015. To this end, the synthetic trade competitiveness index (CI) was created, being the arithmetic average of two normalised indices of the competitive position, i.e. the trade coverage index (TC) and the Balassa revealed comparative advantages index (RCA). The study is based on the trade data from the WITS – World Integrated Trade Solution database (Comtrade, HS – Harmonised System 2002), expressed in USD. Agri-food products are understood as products classified in chapters 01–24 of the Harmonised Commodity Description and Coding System (HS). The research results show that only in trade of 5 product groups no country from the Western Balkans competed with Poland in the EU market. In other product groups which were competitive in Polish exports Poland competed in the EU market with some of the Western Balkan countries.
