1. 1nB2/ˈriːteɪlər/ · /ˈriːteɪlə/零售商

    a person or company that sells goods to people in a shop or online.

    示範例句 · Example

    Many big retailers sell school bags before the new term starts.

    逐字許多大型零售商在新學期開始前賣書包。

    「retailer」是「把東西賣給一般客人」的人或公司——超市、書店、玩具店、網購平台都算。新聞和商業英文很愛用這個詞。跟 wholesaler 容易搞混:retailer 賣給大眾;wholesaler 大批賣給店家。核心畫面可以想成「你買東西前的最後一步賣家」——面對顧客的那一端。

core核心畫面

The last stop before the goods reach you. Somebody made it, somebody moved it in bulk, and then this one sells it in ones and twos to the person who will actually use it — a corner shop, a chain store, an online seller.

可以想成:商品到你手上之前的最後一站。有人製造,有人整批運送,而這一位負責一件兩件地賣給真正要用的人——巷口的店、連鎖賣場、網路商家都算。它跟 wholesaler(批發商)的分工就在這裡:批發賣給店家,零售賣給消費者。
