In a very significant measure of the performance of trade companies, there is a return on investment. This applies in particular to the gross margin return on inventory investment. In this paper, in view of this, we especially investigate the trend and factors of the return on investment, with a special focus on the gross margin return on inventory investment of trade in Serbia. The efficiency of investment management in retail companies in Serbia is at a lower level than global retailers. In order to increase it in the future, it is certainly necessary to apply ?new business models? and modern technology.
