Reports that a series of interviews with managers ofgovernment-owned department stores and co-operatives, free marketretailers and members of the municipal and federal commercial planningcommittees began in 1992. One year later, when a second series ofinterviews was conducted, the retail industry was vastly different.Joint ventures increased and store managers were given the right tochoose their own form of operation. Consumers have experiencedself-service food stores and foreign department stores opened in Beijingand Shanghai.
