Resume
The article examines the impact of economic trends on the functioning of networked business structures in the FMCG sector in Ukraine. It is substantiated that network formats of retail trade play an important role in ensuring stable consumer demand and adapting to external challenges. The article analyzes key macroeconomic factors that determine the operating conditions of retail chains, including GDP dynamics, inflation, unemployment rate, currency fluctuations, and investment activity. The author outlines the features of retail network development in the current context, including business relocation, changes in consumer behavior, and the geographical concentration of the market. Trends towards multi-format strategies, digital transformation, e-commerce development, and the implementation of innovative retail space concepts are highlighted as tools for enhancing competitiveness. The article includes a comparative analysis of the performance of leading Ukrainian and international retail operators. The analysis reveals a divergent growth dynamic of retail chains and confirms that their resilience depends on the ability to innovate, optimize business models, and build consumer loyalty. The research findings can be used to justify strategic management decisions in the retail sector under conditions of economic uncertainty.

Keywords
networked business structures, retail chain, macroeconomic indicators, economic trends, competition, FMCG retail sector.
