The assortment of merchandise is one of the possible criteria for the classification of retailers as a whole as well as classification of their business units. Assortment of merchandise can be in physical and digital form. One or another form of assortment determines retailers that can be classic (traditional) retailers or electronic (digital) retailers. In both cases, retailers can be a total (pure) traditional (classic) or total (pure) electronic (digital) retailers. Generally speaking, the majority of the commercial assortment as we know it is in the physical form.
