Keywords:
competitiveness, region, retail, sustainable development, scorecardAbstract
In the modern world, competition in the retail market is constantly growing, which leads to the need to assess the competitiveness of retail enterprises. Assessing competitiveness allows you to determine the strengths and weaknesses of an enterprise, as well as develop a strategy for its development. However, existing methods for assessing competitiveness often do not take into account the specifics of the market, which reduces their effectiveness. The study is aimed at developing a methodology for integral assessment of the competitiveness of retail enterprises. The methodological basis of the study was the theory of comparative advantage, the theory of industry markets and the provisions of the theory of strategic management. As a result of the study: a new system for assessing the competitiveness of retail enterprises has been developed, taking into account the characteristics of the industry; the key factors influencing the competitiveness of retail enterprises have been identified; the most competitive retail enterprises in the industry were identified; recommendations were developed to improve the competitiveness of the analyzed enterprises; a competitiveness model has been created that can be used to evaluate other enterprises in the industry. The results of the study contribute to the understanding of industry characteristics of the retail market, factors influencing the competitiveness of enterprises, methods for assessing competitiveness, and strategies for increasing the competitiveness of enterprises.
