Abstract: The paper analyses the influence of the Trade Law of December 2009 on the relationships between suppliers of food products and large retail chains. Based on the empirical data on Saint Petersburg, a conclusion is made that the Trade Law is not effective for reducing the market dominance of retail chains and has a negative influence on the institutional environment for business. Alternative ways for solving the problem of the retail chains market dominance are offered.
