Answer: The main difference is the quantity of goods sold and who buys them.
| Wholesale Market | Retail Market |
| Goods are sold in large quantities. | Goods are sold in small quantities. |
| Goods are usually sold to retailers or other businesses. | Goods are sold directly to final consumers. |
| Example: A merchant buys 1,000 pairs of shoes from a factory. | Example: A customer buys one pair of shoes from a shop. |
Remember: Wholesale = Bulk buying. Retail = Buying for personal use.
