Retail-Radio, Tv & Consumer Electronics Stores

The Retail–Radio, TV & Consumer Electronics Stores industry, classified under SIC 5731, comprises chains and independents selling televisions, audio systems, mobile devices, computers, gaming consoles, smart home equipment, and related accessories and services such as installation, extended warranties, and technical support. Customers span value-conscious households, home-office users, gamers, and small businesses seeking competitively priced, up‑to‑date technology. Operators face intense price competition, rapid product obsolescence, inventory risk, and dependence on major OEMs, while navigating consumer protection laws, data privacy regulations, product safety standards, and, for credit‑offering retailers, lending and disclosure rules. In 2024–2025, the sector is shaped by omnichannel retail, buy-online-pickup-in-store models, rising demand for 4K/8K and connected devices, and margin pressure from online marketplaces, prompting diversification into services, subscriptions, and trade‑in programs.
