Retail - You are a retail buyer if you are purchasing turfgrass for your own use or someone else's use, and the turf will not be re-sold. The majority of consumers are retail buyers.
Wholesale - You are a wholesale buyer if you are buying turfgrass that will be re-sold. Some turf producers and their contacts sell only to wholesale buyers. At the time of purchase, you may be asked to present business identification or other credentials that substantiate your status as a wholesale buyer.
