Abstract: The processes and structures in the retail sector in Japan frequently are characterised as very traditional.

These medium-sized firms, that are present in several sub-sectors of retailing, are becoming, through strategies focused on localisation and 'newness', the role models and catalysts for a more general change that is spreading through Japanese retailing.
