dc.description.abstract | This chapter provides new numbers on retail concentration and
grocery store availability in Norway. We compare Norway to the other Scandinavian
countries and, in particular, to Sweden. Retail concentration is high,
and highest in the countries with the highest distribution costs. As opposed to
the neighboring countries, none of the internationally owned food chains are
established in Norway. Decomposing concentration numbers on the county
level in Sweden and Norway, we find concentration in Sweden to be highest in
the most rural counties, with low population density. In Norway, we find highest
concentration in some of the most central counties in the south of Norway,
where population density is much higher than in the rest of the country. We
also provide new numbers on the geographical distribution of grocery stores and
grocery chains across Sweden and Norway. We find interesting new numbers
on grocery store availability when comparing the two countries. Although Norway
has more than twice as many grocery stores per inhabitant, the number of
available stores within ten minutes’ travelling time is surprisingly similar across
the two countries. In fact, if we disregard the Norwegian capital area, the store availability is even more equal across Swedish and Norwegian counties. Our
results indicate that store density may be too high in the Norwegian capital area.
This result is reinforced by the fact that Norwegian consumers in the capital area
have access to Swedish border supermarkets with significantly lower prices and
higher product variety within just 90 minutes’ driving time. | en_US |
