Fashion retailing is the commercial enterprise selling fashion products to the end consumer. It includes business processes involved in selling apparel, accessories, and footwear from manufacturers to consumers. It encompasses a range of activities, including the selection, purchase, distribution, and merchandising of fashion goods.
