Which one of the two yields more profits, and which one would best be suited for a beginner? I know the type of business matters too and location, but what other factors can help you decide which one to go for?

Wholesale involves a lot of capital unlike retail. If a beginner have money, it is better he goes for wholesale. Wholesale have many benefits apart from selling. Companies use to give incentives to wholesalers which comes in products. When the wholesalers sales the products, it translates to money. Sometimes, the company gives the wholesalers on credit or facilitate loans for them. The benefits of wholesale business is uncountable.

Without any doubts wholesalers make a lot more profit than retailers. The wholesalers are in charge of distributing the products to the retailers who would give it to the final consumers.

As for me I would go for wholesale business. The most beautiful thing I love in the wholesale business is that you got to sell the goods in large quantities and faster for good profits compared to retailers who break the bulky and sell one item at a time.

I think that both of them could be beneficial if you know how to make money. Wholesale is a kind of market that attracts certain people. Usually people buy products in bulk from wholesalers.

One variable that would ultimately determine which one you would go for is the level of finances available to you. Wholesale business requires a high amount of money while retail shops can be started with a relatively lower capital.

One of the major factors that will help you to decide is your capital. We all know that anyone who does not have enough capital for the business should not try to go for wholesale

Wholesale business is the level of profitability of any products business. But it requires huge capital because you would need to employ enough sales people to cover the whole shop. And possibly install CCTV cameras. Wholesale business is big business.

If you do not have money for the CCTV camera, it is better not to buy it. It is good yobhabe it but it is not evetuone who will have that kind of money. It is better to use the money to buy goods.

For a beginner in business, it is ideal to put a wholesale one. However, he or she needs to have enough starting capital to pursue this business. If they cannot do it, retailing business is still a good option.

My businessman neighbor told me that he earns big profit selling through retail. We always see anywhere retail sellers. Only big-time businessmen engage in wholesale because they have their permanent retailers who buy in bulk.

The one which is more profitable between the two is the wholesale business while the one which is more suitable for the beginners is the retail business. This is because it's simple and easier to run a retail business than the wholesale.

Both wholesale and retail business are profitable. Though wholesale business is more profitable than retail business. But your financial status would dictates which of the business you can do. Wholesale is more capital intensive than retail business which you can start with small amount of capital.

Well, I feel it is better to start as a retailer then when you are familiar with the business very well, you can move to selling in wholesale. I think that is how it should be

I prefer to sale in retail price especially if the location of the business is not any big or commercialised area because wholesale require you do make a huge turnover before you can make decent profit.
