retail store
Place selling goods
A retail store is a business that sells goods directly to consumers, as opposed to wholesalers who sell to other businesses.
The term encompasses everything from small shops to large department stores and supermarkets.
The retail store on the corner sells groceries and household items.
Often shortened to just "store" in everyday speech.
