A better use would be the word retail which covers the selling of goods to the public (as in the logistics chain from Manufacturer to Distributor to Wholesaler to Retailer to consumer)

Why would you use the plural in this context? Especially as it typically means "a period during which a shop or dealer sells goods at reduced prices." I agree that the word "sells" is better for use as a tag, a verb is ok for a property, a plural noun less so, and even less as it's highly ambiguous in this case. cheers, Martin
