Анотація

Topicality. Unlike individual stores, retail networks have significant market power. They use it by redistributing in their favor part of the value added created in other sectors. This negatively affects the competitiveness of enterprises and makes it necessary to use tools of selective regulation of market processes by the state. It is necessary to study the existing world experience in detail in order to use it in Ukraine.Aim and tasks. The aim of the article is to substantiate the need and ways of implementing state regulation of the relationship between domestic trade networks and manufacturers based on the analysis of modern trends in the development of retail networks in the world, the experience of EU countries.Research results. Trends in global development of retail trade networks, positive and negative consequences of their dynamic growth have been studied. The causes, essence and consequences of unfair trade practices in the relationship between retail networks and their suppliers have been clarified. The experience of state regulation of the activities of retail networks existing in the EU countries is analyzed. It was determined which measures were ineffective, and which contributed to the solution of existing problems. Special attention is paid to the essence of the EU Directive 2019/633 оn unfair trade practices in relationships between enterprises in the agricultural and food supply chain, which prohibits a number of such practices, and its implementation in the member states of the EU. Unfair trade practices used by retail networks in Ukraine have been identified. It was found that the scale of abuse of domestic networks is greater compared to some other countries.Conclusion. The recovery of Ukraine's economy after the war will significantly accelerate if it is possible to balance the interests of trade networks and suppliers. However, in Ukraine, unlike most European countries, there are no legislative acts aimed at eliminating abuses by trade networks. Taking into account the experience of the EU, it is expedient to introduce state regulation of relations between trade networks and suppliers in Ukraine. The adoption of the relevant law will help increase the competitiveness of domestic enterprises and raise the standard of living of the population.
