Abstract
The goal of the article is to ground proposals dealing with enhancement of state standardization of the retail trade system in Russia. In some Russian regions there is a poor provision of the population with retail trade enterprises, which requires certain steps aimed at developing the trade system on the part of state. State regulation of the trade system in Russia is carried out by standards of minimum provision of the population with the area of trade facilities, which are fixed by bodies of power of Russian Federation entities and bodies of local self-governance and approved by the government. However, only 3% of municipal establishments in the country have developed these standards, which demonstrate the low practical importance of figures being adopted. The author puts forward a hypothesis, according to which figures of the trade area per thousand of dwellers used as a standard of min provision of the population with retail trade in Russia should be revised due to market development of trade in this country. To check the hypothesis the author studied works by prominent scientists dealing with this subject and found out that in countries with the developed market system the indicator of the population rekoning on the number of enterprises is taken as a standard. The effective methodology of figures standardization in Russia was researched and it showed its poor scientific validity. As a result, it was proposed to change the standard of min provision of the population with the retail trade and use the standard of the number of trade units per one dweller differentiated by forms of trade. Recommendations of the article form a sound basis for enhancement of the effective standard-legal regulation of the trade system in Russia.
