Retailing
Retailing consists of the sale of goods or merchandise from a fixed location, such as a department store, boutique or kiosk, or by mail, in small or individual lots for direct consumption by the purchaser. Retailing may include subordinated services, such as delivery. Purchasers may be individuals or businesses. In commerce, a "retailer" buys goods or products in large quantities from manufacturers or importers, either directly or through a wholesaler, and then sells smaller quantities to the end-user. Retail establishments are often called shops or stores. Retailers are at the end of the supply chain. Manufacturing marketers see the process of retailing as a necessary part of their overall distribution strategy.
A successful retailing business depends greatly on offering the right product, at the right price, at the right time. Therefore, it is paramount to the success of your business to be the best sources of those products. As you have made your own portfolio of products, it's time to find the right reselling company - distributor - to buy those items and resell them. Often, your opinions will divide but have patience and be aware that the distributor has been reselling to retail businesses on this market for a long time, and you are a new-comer. Your distributor surely has a tone of advice for you regarding retailing: how to set up points-of-sales, where to place certain products and what will work on retailers to accept new products, your products to their shelves.
Just consider: when you go to your favourite grocery store - how many different products can you find on the shelves? Many? Too many? Yes, the crowd is amazing, and the retailing companies are sceptical about the new products you're trying to introduce. Sometimes, they will say NO even before you managed to finish your products' presentation, that's why it is even more important to have a distributor that can handle it - people, that will get your products to the retailing shelves and offer them to the final consumer.
