Popis: One of the most prominent features of the contemporary retail-trade in Slovakia is imminently its concentration and changing structure of the retail network where small stores and self-service stores were replaced by large-scale business formats like supermarkets, hypermarkets and discount stores. In the scope of the retail-trade, the localization decision making is very important since a mistake in the decision and a following inconvenient location of the retail unit leads mainly to serious trade difficulties and subsequently to the crash of the store. The evaluation of the development of retail networks in regions of the Slovak Republic was realized on the basis of selected indicators of the localization and the concentration. Based on the analysis of the concentration and the localization of the retail network in regions of the Slovak Republic conducted, it can be stated that the Bratislava region demonstrates a significant dominance in the monitored period.
