Resumo
[Abstract]: The aim of this study is to examine the weight and evolution of commercial distribution in a medium-sized
Spanish city. The paper is divided into four main parts, the first of which analyzes retail studies within a his-torical context.
The second looks at the basic structure and the evolution of the commercial sector in La Coruña from an aggregate
perspective, and subsequently distinguishes between retail and wholesale activities. Finally, details are given as to the composition of the sector, according to subgroups of activity. Although
the paper has a local focus, an attempt has been made to situate the city’s commercial activity within the wider context of the
Spanish urban system, and in particular, of medium-sized Spanish cities. The discussion con-tinues to reach some general
conclusions about this sector as a whole.
