This chapter uses a theoretical background to identify and explain a new proximity concept in retail sector. In particular, adopting a marketing and management approach, an innovative type of “proximity” is presented, explaining a set of numerous elements and relationships that could link retailer, customer, and territory: “the relational proximity.” The factors useful to describe the roots of “relational proximity” between retailer and customer are presented and identified in a specific case study. The new concept of relational proximity represents the originality of this study. It explains the mood coming out from the integration between the retail value offering and its contextualization with environment, society, and contemporaneity. Following this logic, the retailers in the future will focus their competitive advantage working with the customers, building day by day their relational proximity.

This paper aims to analyze the dynamics of retail innovation and store format, in particular underlining the variables that have led retailers in a return to the concept of neighbourhood, understood as relational proximity to the consumer.In particular, it shows that the concept of neighbourhood is evolving towards new patterns that deviate from previous interpretations of literature that identified under a purely dimensional aspect; today the format of neighbourhood is synonymous with relational proximity with the consumer and this assumption leads to consider proximity also a large store. The economic crisis and the changing lifestyles of consumers have brought independent and associate retailers to reinterpret its format by thinking like a basket of attributes, which includes further services in order to satisfy better consumer needs. The work shows that retail innovation is oriented towards the concept of relational proximity, whose main strength is the ability of the entrepreneur to be in direct relationship with its customers and to be able to get and interpret changes in the market, thus creating a sustainable competitive advantage.

The primary objective of this research was to develop a measurement scale to facilitate assessments of consumer-based retailer equity. Resulting theoretical and managerial implications of this study are also discussed in detail.
