Abstract

Thе following article presents the results of a study aimed at making a theoretical and empirical interpretation of retailers’ assortment supply in omnichannel environment. On this basis, the most prominent challenges and issues are brought to the fore by applying a combination of a review of specialized economic theory and by giving examples from real retail practice. Specific theoretical, conceptual and practical tasks of the study are set. For the analysis of the collected theoretical and empirical data the scientific methods of the factor analysis and synthesis, comparison, generalization, and illustration are applied. The research results are systematized in formulated conclusions and are related to estimating the omnichannel impact on the retailers’ assortment supply.
