The trade cluster can be formed by the enterprises which are at different stages of goods promotion from producer to consumer. The main criterion for the trade cluster formation is trade link leading role in the cluster formation. Specifics peculiarities of trade clusters formation allow their several types distinguishing; these types are distinguished by competition level within the cluster and level of relations formalization between cluster members. Competitive trade cluster combines a set of similar activity type traders in one local space. Cooperative trade cluster provides trade entities orders placement from producers of different goods groups under its own brand.
