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.
