The article is aimed at analyzing peculiarities of the use of cluster analysis for typifyng the regions of Ukraine according to the indicators that characterize the level of development of the trade industry. The article defines the role and place of the trade industry in the country’s economy. In particular, the modern trade industry, experiencing the next stage of dynamic transformation changes, remains one of the leading sectors of the economy of Ukraine, its importance for the development of the national economy is very difficult to overestimate. Sufficient attention is paid to the regional aspect of the implementation of domestic trade, in particular, the study of the level of development of trade activities in certain territories of the country and their further comparative analysis. Taking this into consideration, the article discusses in detail the features and stages of application of one of the methods of modeling multidimensional processes (cluster analysis) for grouping the regions of Ukraine by the level of development of the trade industry. As the information base of the study, indicators characterizing both the current state of the trade industry and the prospects for its development are used. The analysis was carried out for the period of 2017–2020, which allowed to analyze the dynamics of changes in the regional segment of Ukraine’s domestic trade. The carried out analysis showed that the most stable, in terms of the level of development of the trade industry during the study period, is the first cluster – the regions with a high level of trade industry development (Dnipropetrovsk, Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa, and Kharkiv regions). The second cluster includes regions with an average level of internal trade development. Donetsk, Poltava, Zaporizhzhia and Vinnytsia regions are stable representatives of this cluster. The most numerous is the third cluster of regions with low levels of trade development, which can be explained by the prolonged impact of the socio-economic and political crisis that began in 2014. It is determined that Ukraine is characterized by uneven development of territories, the corresponding trend is inherent in the development of the trade industry in the regions justifying the results of clustering.
