Abstract

This book has looked at innovations and dynamics in Japanese retailing over a period of fifty years. During this period Japanese retail companies have continuously shown their innovative strength. What started with the introduction of new techniques has developed into a wide portfolio of retail formats. During the 1990s these formats are increasingly being supplemented with sophisticated support systems that strengthen the position of retailers in the value chain between manufacturers and consumers. In the following, the process underlying these developments will be taken up again and summarized as follows. First, developments in Japanese retailing will be contrasted with the theoretical work on dynamics in retail and distribution systems. Then patterns of innovative behaviour in Japanese distribution will be identified and an evaluation made of factors influencing developments.
