中国连锁零售业集中度研究——基于地理区位角度

A Study on the Concentration Degree of Chain Retailing in China—Based on the Perspective of Regional Location

本文利用因子分析法、聚类分析法对中国连锁零售业在全国30个省市的集中状况进行了实证分析,并通过区位集中率指标对各业态进行了细化研究。总体上来看,中国连锁零售业已呈现出显著的地理集中特征,且主要集中在东部沿海省市。各主要业态也表现出与整个连锁零售业相一致的区位集中态势,且4省集中度越高的业态其向少数省份集中的趋势越明显。综合分析结果将各省市按集中特征归纳为四种类型,并进一步分析了该集中现状形成的主要原因。

This paper analyzes the concentration condition of chain retailing in 30 provinces of China through factor analy- sis and cluster analysis,and then further makes a specific study of its formats with the index of regional con- centration ratio.Generally speaking,obvious characteristics of regional concentration have been presented in chain retailing in China and it mostly concentrates in the east provinces.Each main format has also puts up a consistent regional concentration with the whole industry.It is found that if a format enjoys a higher 4- province concentration ratio,it tends to concentrates to a few provinces.We finally classify the 30 provinces into 4 types according the concentration characteristics and analyze the chief reasons for this concentration sta- tus quo.
