AB  - Investigates changes in retail‐supply relations by drawing on
empirical research into the retail‐supply chain for two product areas:
women′s hosiery and bread. Discusses the implications of changes in
retail‐supply relations for three specific, though interdependent,
areas: the balance of power – between the major retailers and
their suppliers, between different retail capitals, and among
manufacturing suppliers in a particular product area; the consequences
for the geographical organization of the supply chain and the
counter‐tendencies of internationalization and localization of contract
supply; the impact of retail‐supply relations on the sectoral and
geographical distribution of employment. Concludes by briefly addressing
some of the implications of changes in the retail‐supply chain for local
economic development strategies.
