This study, of which main objective was to comparative analyze the competitive of agribusiness cooperatives in Western Parana State, presented a new methodological procedure for cooperatives competitiveness analysis: cluster analysis or grouping. Cluster analysis or clustering was used to classify hierarchically in categories of clusters and measure the degree of competitiveness of cooperatives under study. To be able to measure the degree of competitiveness of cooperatives, it became necessary to determine variables, which together produced a magnitude that, similarly, set the proximity or remoteness of established standards. To measure greatness, it was examined, firstly, a set of 15 variables of economic and financial competitive, later, 16 variables of technological competitive production and another 5 variables of markets, some of the quantitative type and others qualitative/ dichotomous which aimed to characterize the competitive performance of each of the agro-industrial cooperatives in western Parana State. The guiding hypothesis said that cooperatives are not competitive compared to when acting business standards established in this study, which was found from the results. Therefore, considering that the lowest average Euclidean distance achieved in relation to established standards, was 3.969 by C.VALE cooperative, demonstrating a significant distance to the established standards. The results achieved by the cooperatives, in the aspects of hierarchical classification through dendogram graph (tree) demonstrated that cooperatives, in relationships with others, show significant disparities, that is, allow to allude that the actions of cooperation between them, shortly happen. The aspects of competitiveness measures, pointed to the COPACOL cooperative as the most competitive in the economic and financial profile; for the profile production technology, presented C.VALE cooperative and in the profile markets environment, the most competitive is the COOPAVEL cooperative. Finally, it considers the ability to compete in the market the necessary condition to which such cooperatives in the future.
