In store retailing, we distinguish between specialized (47.2-47.7) and non-specialized (47.1) retail sale of goods. These subsectors can be further subdivided according to the types of goods sold. Non-store retail trade is classified as market retail trade (47.8) or other non-store retail trade (47.9) according to the method of sale. This includes e.g. sales through a parcel post, doorstep retail, or vending machine.
