A. A retail member company has a physical or web-based retail presence, a retail business license, primarily sells tangible products to the consumer and charges a retail sales tax on those products sold. (apparel, grocery, florist) An associate member company primarily provides a professional service to the consumer. Therefore, this company has a business license other than retail and is not required to charge a retail sales tax.
