Global Retailing Scenario: & Its Future
INTRODUCTION TO RETAILING
Retailing consists of the sale of goods or merchandise for personal or household consumption either from a fixed location such as a shopping mall or store, or from a fixed location and related subordinated services. In commerce, a retailer buys goods or products in large quantities from manufacturers or importers, either directly or through a wholesaler, and then sells individual items or small quantities to the general public or end-user customers, usually in a shop, also called a store. Retailers are at the end of the supply chain. Marketers see retailing as part of their overall distribution strategy.
Etymology
Retail comes from the French word retaillier which refers to "cutting off, clip and divide" in terms of tailoring (1365). It first was recorded as a noun with the meaning of a "sale in small quantities" in 1433 (French). Its literal meaning for retail was to "cut off, shred, paring". In both Dutch and German also refer to sale of small quantities or items.
