mail-order sales

Mail-order sales occur when customers purchase products through catalogs, online platforms, or order forms, rather than buying in physical stores. Once an order is placed, the retailer ships the products directly to the customer’s address. This method allows consumers to shop from a wide selection of items and compare options without visiting a store. It relies on written or electronic communication for ordering and delivery. Mail-order sales expand shopping convenience, especially for those in remote areas or seeking niche products, and involve processes like inventory management, order fulfillment, and shipping logistics.
