Summary/Abstract: The paper reviews the core conceptual aspects of corporate social responsibility as a principle of business viability, and then focuses on the relevant practices adopted by chosen international retail chains operating on the Polish market. The research shows that in retailing: – the reporting of CSR activities in Poland has been relatively undeveloped, – the CSR strategies of retail multinationals operating in Poland fit within the bounds of their global strategies, though the implementation methods are adapted to the specific situation of each operating market, – there is insufficient awareness of the CSR concept and its benefits compared with more well-developed countries.
