“…Comparisons with other European regions where the tradition of independently owned small stores has been maintained and where the small store sector has been defended through politically-driven support (Coca-Stefaniak et al 2005;Guy 1998b) has shown, however, that the decline of the small store sector is not inevitable when their economic and social role is fully understood, valued, and supported by regulators, planners, and the communities they serve. What then, does the published evidence say about the role of small stores?…”

“…The spurt in out of town retail development (Schiller 1987), and their negative impact on traditional local stores (BDP and OXIRM 1992) was already well documented by the time Planning Policy Guidance Note 6 was issued in 1996 (DoE 1996), and was in keeping with the European trend towards tighter controls over out of town developments (Guy 1998b). The intention of PPG6 was to promote sustainable development, enhance consumer choice by making provision for a range of shopping choices, supporting innovation, improving accessibility to promote socially inclusive retail development, and encouraging regeneration and sustainable development.…”

There is considerable concern in the UK regarding the growing power of supermarkets, a concern that culminated recently in a UK Competition Commission enquiry in the grocery sector. Against this backdrop, some suppliers, independent retailers and societal groups have been critical of the investigation, implying that it did not do justice to the role of small stores in society, and that this issue is insufficiently understood by policy-makers. To address this need, this paper reviews and assesses the available UK evidence on the social and economic role of small independent stores, and the values that are attached to them by the communities they serve. This is achieved using the Systematic Literature Review methodology. The purpose of the paper is to gauge the evidence as a platform for wider debate on how the role of small stores can be maintained and enhanced. The paper identifies key themes and gaps in the literature as a basis for identifying research priorities, and highlights implications for public policy and planning.

“…The shopping centres are becoming not only the place of purchase, but also the one where a wide range of services and cultural events are offered in order to attract as many customers -potential consumers, as possible (Krizan & Lauko, 2014; [6] Kunc, Krizan, Bilkova et al 2016) [8]. Visitingisiting the shopping centre becomes an opportunity for various social occasions and leisure time activities, which is called leisure-time shopping (Guy, 1998 cit. by Spilkova, 2012) [9].…”

Abstract. The main aim of the article is a questionnaire based analysis of shopping behaviour in the context of spending leisure time activities of consumers in shopping centres Donauzentrum and Millennium City in Vienna, the capital city of Austria, as well as, the identification of potential differences caused by their location within the city and by varied offer and the diversity of their individual operations. The research was conducted from November 2015 to February 2016 with 320 respondents (160 respondents in Donauzentrum and 160 respondents in Millennium City). Millenium City was often visited by occasional consumers (proximity of railway station and airport, near the city centre, centre with a hotel part, as well). Considering varied offer and the diversity of operations (cinemas, night clubs, fitness centres, bars, restaurants, etc.), the consumers seldom stayed longer during a visit (interval of 91-120 min was stated by 33.75% of the respondents). Donauzentrum was visited more often (i.e. purchase of daily consumer goods). The consumers stayed shorter and spent less money.

Основною метою статті є аналіз споживчої поведінки під час дозвілля споживачів у торгових центрах «Донауцентрум» і «Міленіум сіті» у Відні, столиці Австрії, а також виявлення потенційних відмінностей, викликаних їх розташування, відмінністю торговельних і розважальних пропозицій. Дослідження в формі анкетування проводилося з листопада 2015 року по лютий 2016 року. Було опитано 320 респондентів (160 респондентів у «Донауцентрум» і 160 респондентів у «Міленіум сіті»). «Міленіум сіті» часто відвідували випадкові споживачі в зв›язку з його вдалим розташуванням (близькістю залізничного вокзалу та аеропорту, центру міста й готельних комплексів). З огляду на різноманітну пропозицію розваг (кінотеатри, нічні клуби, фітнес-центри, бари, ресторани і т.п.), споживачі рідко залишалися в «Міленіум сіті» довше 91-120 хвилин, про що повідомили 33,75% респондентів. «Донауцентрум» респонденти відвідували частіше, ніж «Міленіум сіті» (у зв›язку з купівлею товарів щоденного споживання), однак проводили в ньому менше часу й витрачали менше грошей. На основі аналізу автори дійшли висновку, що на споживчу поведінку в торговому центрі перш за все впливає відмінність розважальних пропозицій.

“…Compared to many other European countries (see e.g. Davies, 1995;Guy, 1998), the development of out-of-town shopping areas in the Netherlands has been much more restricted. More recently, while policy makers in other countries focus at encouraging retail investments in town centres (see e.g.…”
