retail shop

Place selling goods

A retail shop is a store that sells goods directly to consumers, as opposed to wholesale operations that sell to other businesses.

The term is more common in British English, where Americans would typically say retail store or simply shop.

There's a lovely retail shop on the corner that sells handmade jewelry.
