Abstract
This study addresses the issue of the evolution of the implications for performance results of strategic groups as an intermediate unit between the industry and the firm. This study aims at international industries and more specifically to retailing in Europe, and extends it over time during the period of the 1980s and the early 1990s. The relationship between the existence of strategic groups and firms' results is tested through a methodological process based on multivariable analysis. In order to know more about the recently developed notion of a strategic group identity, this concept is explored on the European geographical area through a number of micro-processes and cognitive factors, and environmental determinants, over which a further understanding are challenges for future research in different areas
