Retailer Links By Country

As part of this site, I hope to include as much free information about the food retail industry as is possible and with that, on this page I hope to include relevant and informative reports that I have found on the net.
One of the best sources for generalized retail information that I have found is through the United States Department of Agriculture ( USDA ) Foreign Agriculture Service Retail Food Sector reports on countries from around the world.
They are reports done regularly ( some dating back several years ) by Attache's at embassies and consulates to provide those in the industry with insights into the food retail trade and import / export information for the specific countries as it relates to the U.S. Overall, they provide a good picture of each country's retail businesses, trends etc. I have found them to be an excellent resource. The following are 10 reports for some of the major food retailing countries from around the globe. Just click on the flag or logo to open / download the file.
