Abstract
Several structural reform programs have been implemented since the early 1980s in Japan. A common aim of these reforms is to improve overall economic efficiency and flexibility. Some of the typical examples are the deregulation on the large store and on imports restricts, and privatization of some industries. Because of those reforms Japanese distribution channels have begun to change drastically (see Hφj et al. (1995)).
