<jats:p>This paper aims to study whether Peruvian manufacturing firms that implement innovation have positive performance and whether R&D activities moderate these relationships.</jats:p>

<jats:title content-type="abstract-subheading">Design/methodology/approach</jats:title>
<jats:p>Using a data set of Peruvian manufacturing firms from the 2018 National Survey of Innovation, a LOGIT model analysis was applied to 774 companies. In addition, the authors fitted different models into subsamples to explore the moderating effects of R&D on manufacturing firms. Finally, the regression models were computed using R software.</jats:p>

<jats:title content-type="abstract-subheading">Findings</jats:title>
<jats:p>The results indicate that product, service and marketing innovation are associated positively with an increase in market share, while process and organizational innovations are associated positively with productivity. Moreover, companies with R&D are more productivity-oriented than companies without R&D.</jats:p>

<jats:title content-type="abstract-subheading">Research limitations/implications</jats:title>
<jats:p>This study contributes to the literature on innovation management by supporting the assumption that innovation results in increased productivity and expands market demand. In addition, findings highlight that R&D is essential for boosting firms’ productivity.</jats:p>

<jats:title content-type="abstract-subheading">Practical implications</jats:title>
<jats:p>Managers should consider an appropriate combination of the innovation portfolio and R&D investments to make progress and increase performance in the company. In addition, policymakers should consider that investments to promote the development of R&D activities in manufacturing companies will likely lead to médium- or long-term returns.</jats:p>

<jats:title content-type="abstract-subheading">Social implications</jats:title>
<jats:p>The correct use of indicators to measure these relationships could help the policymaker to design and measure policy instruments more efficiently.</jats:p>
