-Retail and service [[urban object|urban object]]s are buildings, designated for the purpose of housing economic activities that fulfil the role of goods and service provision. Examples include shops, restaurants, credit unions, etc.
-== Description ==
-Retail and services activities are very important drivers of economic activity within urban areas. Retail services predominantly become clustered within a specific area, offering wide ranging services to consumers, and attracting significant footfall. Retail services which may be offered will range from the sale and supply of consumer goods and products, to the provision of social activities such as bars and restaurants. Retail and services activities will typically occur in one of three primary contexts: [[High Street Retail/Services|High Street]], [[Shopping Centre Retail/Services|Shopping Centre]] or [[Out of Town Retail/Services|Out of Town Retail Park]]. These contexts within which retail and services activities occur represent three different urban characters.

-== Functions ==
-=== Social ===
-=== Economic ===
-The retail and services industry is one of the largest private-sectors in terms of jobs and GDP ([[Primary economic impact|primary impact]]), but the economic impact of the retail industry extends beyond the industry itself. First of all, retail and services require inputs from various other sectors such as real estate, finance, marketing, transportation, wholesale trade for its operations (the [[Secondary economic impact|secondary economic impact]]). Additionally, employees and owners will generate economic spin off as consumers of goods and services(the induced economic impact).
-=== Mobility ===
-An important transportation issue concerning retail is retail logistics. Retail logistics includes transportation of goods to the points of retail sales and storage there. It also covers additional activities for door delivery of goods to the customers.
-=== Safety ===
-== Security Issues ==
-==== Economic dimension of security issues for Retail areas/objects ====
-Retailers have to deal with a wide array of issues and problems in terms of security threats such as shoplifting, theft and fraud by employees, burglary, (armed) robbery, graffiti and vandalism. Shoplifting is widely considered to be one of the most serious of these threats. Moreover, retailers spent billions on loss prevention and these costs are steadily increasing worldwide.
-== Measures ==
-==== Economic dimension of security measures for Retail areas/objects ====
-Preventive measures such as surveillance, physical security, etc. reduce the costs of retail crime, but demand significant investments. [[Economic effects of anti-crime security measures#Designing Out Crime|Designing out crime]] in retail areas can have beneficial effects.
