It has been clarified that among internal barriers (information barriers, financial barriers, and marketing barriers) in International Entrepreneurship Development of dairy industries, the effect of information barriers is insignificant and also financial barriers and marketing barriers have most significant effects on International Entrepreneurship Development, respectively. Also, among the factors that show marketing barriers (product, prices, distribution transportation, and development) the distribution has insignificant effect on internationalization and also the development factor have most effect in comparison with four others that are in rank two to four (product, transportation, and price) respectively. Based on the ranking and the importance of each barrier factors, it is necessary that an appropriate solution to be determined in order to decrease the factor's effects on internationalization.
