Firm entry in the Swedish Wholesale Trade sector: Does market definition matter?
The Annals of Regional Science, 2014Co-Authors: Daniel Brandt, Zuzana Macuchova, Niklas RudholmAbstract:Firm entry into local markets has often been studied using administrative areas such as municipalities as the assumed relevant markets. However, administrative areas and the actual relevant markets based on local demand for firms’ products often do not coincide, which could bias the results of studies treating administrative areas as the relevant markets. Based on a behavioral assumption regarding how retailers act when purchasing products from Wholesale Trade firms, we create alternative markets using Voronoi diagrams. We then compare the empirical results of investigating the determinants of firm entry using municipalities as the relevant markets with the results obtained using Voronoi markets. The results indicate that, in both cases, the same variables are statistically significant in affecting entry, though the estimated effects differ in size.

Firm migration in the Swedish Wholesale Trade sector
The International Review of Retail Distribution and Consumer Research, 2013Co-Authors: Johan Håkansson, Zuzana Macuchova, Niklas RudholmAbstract:This article analyzes the determinants of firm migration in the Swedish Wholesale Trade sector using a unique dataset covering over 10,000 Swedish Wholesale Trade firms during the years 2000–2004. The results indicate that there are negative correlations between profits, firm age, and firm size and the probability of firm migration. There is a positive correlation between firm growth in the previous year and firm migration, indicating that growth opportunities that cannot be realized at the present location are an important motivation for migration.

New Start-ups and Firm In-migration - Evidence from the Swedish Wholesale Trade Industry
2011Co-Authors: Sven-olov Daunfeldt, Niklas Elert, Niklas RudholmAbstract:The purpose of this paper is to distinguish between the determinants of new start-ups and in-migration of firms using a data-set that covers 13,471 limited liability firms in the Swedish Wholesale Trade industries during the period 2000-2004. Our results indicate that the presence of a university more than doubles the expected number of entrants and increases the expected number of in-migrating firms with 30%. A large share of educated workers and a high local unemployment rate is also associated with more start-ups and firm in-migration.

Firm Growth in the Retail and Wholesale Trade Sectors – Evidence from Sweden
2011Co-Authors: Sven-olov Daunfeldt, Zuzana Macuchova, Åsa Lang, Niklas RudholmAbstract:To identify the determinants of firm growth within the Swedish retail – and Wholesale Trade industries during the period 1998- 2004, we analyze a sample of 400 limited companies using quantile regression techniques. Our results indicate that firm growth mainly can be explained by time-invariant firm-specific effects, supporting Penrose’s (1959) suggestion that internal resources such as firm culture, brand loyalty, entrepreneurial skills, and so on, are important determinants of firm growth rates.

Entry into Swedish Retail and Wholesale Trade Markets
2005Co-Authors: Sven-olov Daunfeldt, Niklas Rudholm, Fredrik BergströmAbstract:This paper examines, using a zero-inflated negative binomial regression model, what determined entry into the Swedish retail and Wholesale Trade markets between 1990 and 1996. According to the results, high returns on equity and low sunk costs seemed to attract more entry into retail Trade industries, while recent entry and higher total industry sales were associated with more entry into both retail and Wholesale Trade local markets.

Entry into Swedish Retail- and Wholesale Trade Markets
2002Co-Authors: Sven-olov Daunfeldt, Niklas Rudholm, Fredrik BergströmAbstract:In this paper, a Poisson regression model is used to study the determinants of entry of new firms into the Swedish retail- and Wholesale Trade markets. The results suggest that incumbent firms engage in strategic behavior to prevent the entry of newcomers. Regional factors are also found to be important determinants of entry.
