| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study formulated a spatial equilibrium model of stores and distribution centers that explicitly consider the inventory management strategy of retail firms (such as the timing to ordering inventory, lot size and safety stock to prevent the stock-out). With the analysis of the model, this study showed that investment in urban road network affects the location pattern of franchise stores and distribution centers in a city, through the improvement of logistics transportation. This effect has economic benefit to increase the convenience of shopping for consumers. This study also developed methods for the practical application of the spatial model to the actual urban area.
