Finland is facing many diffi cult decisions when revitalising the economy and employ-ment rate of the country. It is important to revive our export, but we can no longer build

the growth of Finland simply on this one factor. It is essential to also secure the purchasing power of consumers and the functionality of the domestic market in order to achieve the goal.

The weakening of purchasing power and the trust of consumers is clearly refl ected in the de-velopment of grocery trade in 2014: The growth of sales was only 0.7% and the HoReCa sector opera-tors saw their sales dropping for the fi rst time in fi ve years. In recent years, any growth in grocery trade has not been due to volumes. In 2014, the price development of food items turned down, and during the entire year, the price of food only in-creased by about 0.2%. The turnover of household goods in the department stores and hypermarket chains of the Finnish Grocery Trade Association, in turn, shrunk by 6.3% from 2013. The trend has continued in early 2015.

The new government should quickly undertake the task of enhancing pur-chasing power. If domestic demand is not active, it will be diffi cult to improve the employment rate, and the domestic market will lose many important invest-ments.

WORK, INVESTMENTS AND NEIGHBOURHOOD SERVICES

Securing the competitive strength and operation-al preconditions of grocery trade is vital for the development of the entire society. Grocery trade and HoReCa wholesale trade employ about 65,000 people. The companies in the industry are signifi -cant taxpayers and invest hundreds of millions in Finland every year. The extensive service network of grocery trade, in turn, enables sparsely popu-lated areas and population centres to retain other important neighbourhood services. The services, jobs and investments of grocery trade are essential to the stable development and habitability of the entire country.

If willing, the new government will be able to substantially infl uence the recovery of the domes-tic market and the purchasing power as well as the opportunities of our companies to invest and employ. Effi cient methods include correct tax so-

lutions and cutting regulations that hinder development. In other Nordic Countries,

these solutions have already been car-ried out with excellent results.

TRADE IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF SOCIETY

The grocery trade operations are vital in order for society to work and the everyday life of consumers to contin-ue smoothly. Trade plays a signifi cant

role as a foundation block of society, ensur-ing services and the habitability of the entire country and providing employment opportu-nities.

Out of all the industries in Finland, the trade sector employs the most people. In 2014, it em-ployed 290,000 people, approximately 65,000 of whom worked in the grocery trade, depart-ment store trade and HoReCa wholesales.

GROCERY TRADE MARKET IN FINLAND

The Finnish grocery trade is characterised by the formation of chains and the centralisation of procurement and logistics. The situation is similar in the other Nordic countries; without large volumes it is impossible to be as effi cient as necessary in vast, sparsely populated coun-tries. Without suffi cient cost-effi ciency, prices would escalate, selections would shrink, and customers would have a poorer service and reduced accessibility.

The structure of the Finnish grocery trade has also been changed by the migra-tion to growth centres, the increased use of cars as well as a more extensive selection of goods and underlying IT development that has made the management of such se-lection possible. In 25 years, the number of market-size stores has gone down from nearly 10,000 stores to approximately 3,200 stores. Selections have tripled in 20 years.Large stores are clearly more cost effi cient than smaller ones. For a long time, large stores have played a signifi cant role in Finland. The largest stores, that is to say 30 per cent of stores, account for 80 per cent of all grocery sales. However, smaller stores are a lot more important than their volume might suggest in their role in maintaining the food supply and the habitability of the entire country and as local service providers.

In 2014, the value of grocery retail sales was approximately 16.705 billion euros.

She regulations of retail trade in Finland have for years been among the strictest in the OECD countries. Overly strict regula-tions substantially hinder the productivity

and competitive strength of the domestic market. The European Commission has also paid attention to this. The Commission advised Finland to renew its retail trade regulations and withdraw limita-tions most recently in May 2015.

In 2013, the retail trade regulations of Finland were the fi fth most strict among 27 OECD coun-tries. As recently as the year 2008, we were still halfway up the list. Sweden, Denmark and Estonia, for instance, are below average in comparison. In Sweden, the trade is the least regulated among the OECD countries, and the productivity of retail trade is clearly better than in Finland.

The new government should take heed of the Commission’s message. Exaggerated regulation, resulting in unnecessary bureaucracy and expens-es, hinders competition and the development of the domestic market. Fair, market-driven competi-tion can be increased by dismantling some of the regulations.

UNNECESSARY RESTRICTIONS OF CONSTRUC-TION AND SELECTION MUST BE ELIMINATED

In the fi eld of retail trade, the promotion of healthy competition includes changing the land use and

MORE COMPETITION BY IMPROVING REGULATIONS

building act to better support competition. Accord-ing to the surveys of the Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority, commerce-related construc-tion and the regulations of self-care medication, for instance, need some readjustments. For years, Sweden and other Nordic Countries have allowed the sales of a safe selection of self-care medication in grocery stores.

The competitive strength of small shops, in par-ticular, can be effectively infl uenced by expand-ing the selection of the shops. In addition to a safe selection of self-care medication, the sales of beers and other alcoholic beverages with the al-cohol content of 5.5% or less should be allowed. A moderate reduction of regulations can be executed without risking the position of Alko. At the same time, the solution would sensibly reduce the com-petitive damage caused by the situation of Alko. Of all the market-type stores in Finland, about 60% are small shops of less than 400 m2. Secur-ing the competitive strength of these shops directly infl uences the con-servation of the extensive service network of commerce and thou-sands of jobs.
