The U.S Retail Market

Business transactions have been existing ever since humans gained the understanding of exchanging one good for the other, greatly known as the Barter System in economic terms.

Later, this exchange of trade began to be used in return for a good or service. This exchange has evolved throughout the ages.

The official transcript of the digital business transactions recorded in history was conducted in 1984 by Jane Snowball, a 72-year-old, using the device called videotex which comprised of television and landline.

This device was considered to be a great invention in video conferencing. From 1984 to 2010, it was considered to be an official medium of video conferencing.

Likewise, the retail market has evolved throughout time too. From traditional street markets to widespread self-service retail stores such as Walmart, Target, Costco, and others.

Digital stores are on boom after the pandemic. Amazon is the testament to this statement. According to a Statista report (2021), Amazon holds 37.8% of US retail market shares.

Even though having no physical store presence using the Brick-and-Mortar system it has gained immense growth in the retail market. All businesses are going digital even retail stores.

A simple grocery store or flower shop is more considerate to open a startup using a Brick-and-Mortar system and sell its products or services online. Restaurants have adopted the virtual kitchen concept which allows customers to take out only.

Consumer durables are the top selling items in online purchasing. It also includes telecom retail companies like; Mobilelink the authorized retailer of Cricket Wireless, Victra the authorized retailer of Verizon, and Mobily of AT&T.

These retail companies are independent retailers of their respective networks using their copyrights for the sale of their products and services but not franchising.

The retail market is adaptive which has led to the significant importance and skill in the market. It involves all the aspects of a corporation yet doesn’t recognize itself as one.
