Independent Retailer

An independent retailer is a business that sells products directly to customers and operates on its own, without being owned or controlled by a larger corporation or franchise. These retailers often have unique or specialized offerings, and they make decisions about their inventory, pricing, and store management independently. Examples include local grocery stores, boutique shops, and specialty stores. They typically prioritize personalized service and community engagement, and their success relies on building relationships with customers and adapting to local market needs.
