Abstract
This paper compares the productivity of large and small Brazilian supermarkets from 1994 to 1998. The authors’ findings, based on the application of Data Envelopment Analysis, or DEA, support an initial hypothesis that assumes not only that the productivity of larger supermarkets is much higher, but the production gap between smaller and larger chains is increasing.
