Definition

The sale of physical goods or merchandise from fixed outlets, such as a kiosk or store, in small quantities for direct consumption by the purchaser instead of resale is known as retail.

Retail may also include services which are considered subordinate, such as delivery. Retail is the end of the supply-chain – retailers buy goods in large quantities from producers, manufacturers, or wholesalers, and sell them directly to the final consumers. Thus, retail establishments are often known as “shops” or “stores”.

Manufacturers often see retail as an essential and immovable

    The main operation of Food Merchandising Corporation located in New Jersey was to stock certain goods (packaged meats) and ship them to various stores. In order to prepare the meat for shipment to the intermediaries, it had to be unloaded and butchered. The employees were broken down in to two sets (luggers and butchers) in order to perform the tasks. The luggers were responsible for unloading the tremendously heavy meat while the butchers were responsible for butchering the meat once it arrived within the warehouse. When the company became unionized, the workers were given an option as to which position they preferred. This was done according to seniority. Most of the older men chose to become butchers because of the physical labor required to lug the meat and because of the higher wage associated with the job. Therefore, the others were slated to be luggers. Consequently, two different types of individuals became associated with the two different types of jobs (Buller & Schuler, 2003, p.317).…
