Retail Restructuring in Polish Transitional Economy

Zbigniew Taylor

Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, 2001, vol. 92, issue 2, 185-201

Abstract: This paper consists of two sections. The first provides a general outline of transformation processes in retailing on the national scale in the years 1988–98. Special attention is paid to the factors of retail development and stores privatisation, foreign entrepreneurship in retailing, stores fragmentation and changes in assortment. The second section comprises the empirical case study of a small town in which the changes in retailing and services observed can be studied on the micro‐scale. The changes include an increase in the number of facilities, privatisation processes, changes in assortments, emergence of new crafts in services, changes in location and early stages of capital concentration.
