MK 473 Retailing (Chamberlaine)

Retail trade associations offer a wealth of information, including news and research reports.  Note:  While much of the information on these sites will be freely available, some postings may be for association members only. If you hit a paywall for a trade publication article, check the Business Source Complete or One Business database (linked on LibGuide) to check for full access for that article.

• There are many more retail trade associations in addition to those listed below.  One way to find other retail trade associations is with a Google search.  Enter retail trade keywords  (ex:  jewelry stores) followed by the word "association."  Ex:  "jewelry stores" association 
• The First Research industry reports have a Websites section that lists trade associations.  Find the First Research database under the "Databases & WSJ" section of this LibGuide.
