Sažetak
Organizational and structural changes in the retail trade in the Republic of Croatia are viewed in the sense of the change of quality, as the reflection of the reached level of development. In the paper, the author first explains the retail trade and its structure. In the analysis of organizational and structural changes in the retail trade in Croatia, the author starts from the growth/decline of the retail trade (indicators about the physical volume of realized turnover, about the number of shops, about the size of capacities and number of employees), and then analyzes its development (qualitative changes) in last 20 – 30 years (structural changes in the realized turnover - concentration tendencies, in the forms of retail trade, in the formats of shops, development of co-operative forms, etc.). Structural changes in the Croatian retail trade have also reflected themselves on the development of new forms of firms/companies, new formats of shops, vertical integration of wholesale and retail trade, as well as on the new relations of cooperation of trade companies (e.g. of retail chains) with manufacturers.
