Family businesses constitute the oldest and most dominant form of business organization in the world.

From this point of view, analysis was carried out for 424 family businesses by random sampling method. Competitive strategies as a result of correlation analysis; 49.6% (r=0.496, p<0.01) with innovation orientation and 55.8% (r=0.558, p<0.01) with entrepreneurial orientation. According to the SEM estimation results; entrepreneurial orientation has a positive and significant effect on competitive strategies dimension (β=0.540, p<0.01). Innovation orientation has a significant positive effect on competitive strategies (β=0.421, p<0.01). Entrepreneurship orientation affects the dimension of competitive strategies the most, with innovation orientation being the second most effective.
