What is the Consumer Goods Retailing Industry?
Subdivision operators sell personal and household items such as clothing, furniture, appliances, computers and garden supplies. This does not include revenue from sales of food, fuel, alcohol or motor vehicles. Retailers purchase stock from manufacturers or wholesalers and then sell these products to the general public. Although online sales generated by traditional retailers are included in the subdivision, the revenue earned by online-only retailers is excluded.
