Summary/Abstract: Supermarkets, discount stores, have a growing market share in food retailing, forcing "traditional", smaller shops into the background and in a difficult situation. In recent years, consumers have preferred hypermarkets, supermarkets, discount stores, reaching a market share of over 60% in Romania (in some Western European countries this share is already around 80%). In this paper, I have examined the globalization and concentration characteristics of food retail markets and compared the food retail markets of some Central and Eastern Europe countries, using different international and Romanian databases.
