From the 90’s, the economic stability, allied with the technological advance, the globalization and the emerging of new formats, modified significantly the way that the supermarket sector operates in Brazil, demanding the improvement of the operational management of these companies. These changes stimulated the market concentration, however the way the companies are connected, according to certain indicators, is still doubtful. This paper implements ANACOR and HOMALS statistic techniques in Brazilian supermarket chains, aiming at analyzing the impact of three specific indicators in the development of these companies. In order to develop this research, secondary data from the ranking of the biggest supermarket chains in Brazil between 2002 and 2006 were used. The data collected refers to the regions where the headquarters of the companies are placed, by check-out, by yd2 and by employee invoices, from 2002 to 2006.
