What is Retail?Retail is the sale of goods to the public in
relatively small quantities for use or consumption rather than for

Why Retail?I chose the retail industry to find out about jobs
that involve technology because I currently work in retail and I
only ever deal with IT from a technical standpoint and I wanted to
know more about the technology make up of not only my company but
also retail as a whole.
