Not only the “standard” form of everyday shopping for basic provisions in corner shops is common today, but also daily visiting of specialized retail chain stores or shopping areas has become a standard phenomenon. Such daily shopping trips are often intertwined with commuting to work, school, or other services and have become an important factor in the daily lives of residents (not only in the larger agglomerations). This phenomenon has led to the creation of stronger links between the inhabitants within a daily urban system. It is the aim of this contribution to present and discuss selected results of commuting for retail shopping in Brno hinterland (the Czech Republic) with emphasis on daily foodstuffs shopping.
