Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, Comenius University in Bratislava (Management), course: Vorbereitung Dissertation, language: English, abstract: The first considerations of this thesis developed in 2006 during my second degree course for the MBA degree at the HDU Deggendorf (Germany) and the University of Limerick (Ireland). At the time of this course there was a great discussion at the business schools of the universities that were part of the MBA programme about the influences of the internet commerce on the market potentials in retail. Socalled disruptive strategies by companies such as Amazon (for books) and Unister (for tourism) created massive upheavals in the respective trade segments. The upheaval hit small retailers as much as industry giants. The question for me was if the threats would reach a new pinnacle in the static retail business. Already during my first degree course as a university business graduate (MA equivalent) during the years 1993-1998 (time of the “new economy” hype) there were enormous market redistributions, then mainly in the financial services sector, but in the early stages already also in the book trade, which often could not be fended off by established companies. The questions that I have been wondering about since are: “What will the retail market look like in the next few years?”, “How will companies have to act strategically under these aspects?” and “Are there things that endure and never change (so-to-speak anchor points on the market)?” In my research work over the last few years I have tried to find answers to these questions and looked for potentials for a successful retail business.

Seminar paper from the year 2001 in the subject Business economics - General, grade: very good, Maastricht University (Business Administration), course: European Business Startegy, language: English, abstract: How many retailers would one expect to be in the top ten of the global fortune 500? There is one, and it has a firm second position, leaving behind mammoth companies such as Ford and General Motors (www.fortune500.com). Wal-Mart is the world’s largest retailer with 195 billion dollars in revenue in the year 2000, with operations mainly concentrated in the United States. Renowned in the United States for their discount centres, they have diversified into wholesaling to sustain the explosive growth of the seventies and eighties. Making use of acquired knowledge in distribution and inventory management technology, these new formulas proved to be profitable as well. However, the United States of America were not big enough to satisfy the needs of such a giant company, and international expansion was inevitable. After entry in South-America and Asia, Europe is the next market to be penetrated by Wal-Mart. The time seems right, as extensive liberalization has opened up the European Union and far-reaching economic integration between member states have created a huge common market, offering scale economies in purchasing and distribution similar to U.S. operations. Wal-Mart can use experience from previous foreign expansions to implement the correct strategy for Europe. This paper analyses Wal-Mart’s European strategy, the rational behind its move to Europe and implications for its European competitors. It explains the following problem statement: Wal-Mart’s entry into the European market was a strategic move rather than the pursuit of a growth opportunity. A brief review of Wal-Mart’s history will be followed by the factors explaining their success in the United States, coming together in a concept called “strategic fit”. After a short summary of their foreign expansion into South-America to stress the importance of the transferability of the concept of strategic fit, a description of the European retail industry will be given. Then the European retail industry is analysed with the help of the generic five forces model from Porter. The paper ends with a conclusion hinting at the future of the European retail market.

Despite the publication of several studies examining European retailing in relation to the USA, there is still a dearth of recent research, in English, that explores the development of retailing in specific European countries (with the obvious exception of Britain), over the twentieth century. Even for the UK, more research is needed to challenge claims such as the alleged "backwardness" of British retailing relative to North America, or the presence of formidable "environmental" barriers to the "industrialisation" of retailing in Britain. New Perspectives on 20th Century European Retailing showcases new research on various aspects of twentieth century European retailing, that challenges the traditional view that Europe was a "follower" of America in retail innovation. It brings together work by several - mainly early career - scholars, who are doing innovative, archival-based, research on various aspects of European retail history. Following a general review of European retailing by the editors (discussing key debates and new approaches) seven thematic chapters present work that either sheds new light on old debates and/or explores hitherto neglected topics. Collectively, they show that whereas retailers are often regarded as ‘intermediaries’, in fact they are actors in their own right and they challenge the traditional view that Europe was a "follower" of America in retail innovation. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Business History journal.
