Retailers provide the service of making goods available to consumers in convenient quantities and

locations. Retailing involves buying from wholesalers or direct from manufacturers, breaking bulk,

displaying goods for sale either physically or online, and sometimes delivery. Wholesalers are

independent organizations in the distribution channel that buy in bulk and sell to resellers rather

than to consumers. Both retailers and wholesalers take ownership of the goods and so bear the risk

of carrying inventory. They also reduce the total number of transactions required for the process of

transferring goods from manufacturers to consumers.

Specialty stores, supermarkets, convenience stores, discount stores, department stores and factory

outlets are among the main retail store formats.

E-commerce Stores Setting up Offline Stores – In 2014, many e-commerce retailers started offline

stores. Birchbox, an e-commerce store opened its first physical store in Soho and companies like

Bonobos and Warby Parker doubled the number of their brick and mortar stores in 2014. E-

commerce retailers setting up offline stores are good news for brick and mortar concept because it

validates the need for physical stores.

Mobile will continue to grow – Mobile usage will not slow down going forward, while smart phones

and tablets are expected to play bigger roles in shopping. Services such as mobile ordering will

increase and larger companies such as BJ’s Restaurant and Chipotle are implementing this but

solutions like Mobi2Go enable SMBs to use these services. Usage of mobile wallets such as Google,

Soft card and Apple will increase and the companies can expect less card swiping and cash handling

and more phone-scanning in future.
