Abstract: Retail food markets are the main channels of food sales to domestic consumers. This article presents an analysis of the factors of development of local retail markets (retail trade) using the example of administrative units (districts) As a result of the analysis of the regression model, a set of factors influencing the state of retail trade in administrative districts was substantiated: the population in the administrative center of the district, the population density in the administrative district, the presence of manufacturing enterprises in the territory of the administrative district, the presence of the administrative district border with another region. The economic interpretation of the regression model assessment allowed us to draw the following conclusions (all other things being equal): (a) with an increase in the population in the administrative center of the district by 1%, retail trade in the district per capita will increase by 0.5%; (b) with an increase in population density by 1%, retail trade in the district (per capita) will increase by 0.2%; (c) with an increase in cost the volume of output of manufacturing industries in the administrative district by 1% retail trade in the district (per capita) will increase by 0.04%; (d) the presence of an external border with other regions of the Volga Federal District, all other things being equal, will contribute to a reduction in retail trade in the area by 15.4%.
