Abstract

Services market in Poland in the years preceding the economic transformation was inhibited. On the one hand, by limiting the development of the private sector, and on the other by the failure of the state sector. New opportunities for this sector have opened up with system changes in the last century. Another important moment was 2004. Poland became a member of the European Union at the time. Present times are the widespread marketisation, which means more participation of private entities in the provision of services. This phenomenon is especially important in the case of public service market. The effect of marketisation is to increase competitiveness, improve quality and increase service market. The article focuses on the phenomenon of marketisation of services in small towns. The aim of the study is to present the marketisation of services in the smallest settlement units in Poland (less than 20,000 inhabitants). In addition, it shows whether this process is similar to that in large cities and how it affects the economic and social situation of small towns. Analysis used data on the number of entities registered in the REGON system divided into sections of the economy according to the PKD.
