Business selling goods to consumers

A business that sells products directly to people who use them, not to other businesses.

사용 패턴: [a retailer] sells [products] to [consumers]
자주 하는 실수:
Learners sometimes use *retail* instead of *retailer*, saying things like *Many retails sell this product*. *Retail* is usually a noun or adjective for the type of trade, while *retailer* is the business that sells goods. Another common error is to use *retailer* for the customer, e.g. *The retailer bought a TV*, when the correct word is *customer* or *shopper*.
유의어
store (Often refers to the physical place; 'retailer' is more about the business as a company, especially in business writing.) | chain (Usually means a large group of stores under one brand; a type of retailer, not any retailer.)
반의어
wholesaler (A wholesaler sells goods to retailers or other businesses, not directly to the general public.)

A person who sells products to the public as a business, for example the owner of a shop.

유의어
shopkeeper (Usually suggests the owner of a small, often local shop; slightly more informal and more focused on a single physical store.) | merchant (More formal or old-fashioned; can imply larger-scale trading, not only directly to final consumers.)
