THE EVOLUTION OF RETAIL IN ROMANIA

Summary/Abstract: The past years have brought important changes into the Romanian retail sector. The changes started to rush after the moment when Romania was becoming a member of the European Union, was a fact. The various researches which have been made in the retail domain reveal the development of the new ways of trading, leaving the traditional trading one step behind. Through this debate I intend to bring out a picture concerning the evolution of “retail“ in the last years in Romania, to outline the retail sector at this moment and eventually to anticipate the tendencies which will be present in the Romanian retail sector in perspective. The last years have brought especially important changes in the retail sector in Romania. The changes began to more obviously manifest after Romania’s adhesion became a certainty. The results from numerous researches in retail reveal the evolution of new types of commerce in the detriment of those represented by traditional commerce and implicitly the change in the structure of the local retail. Trough this paper I seek to portray an x-ray of the evolution of retail in Romania of the last years, to underline the retails’ sector actual state, also to anticipate the tendencies that will manifest in the Romanian retail sector in the near future.
