尽管独立零售商代表着美国零售业的脊梁,它们的地位却每况愈下。这对于那些为了创建企业而牺牲了时间、金钱、精力、家庭的商人来说是非常不幸的。独立零售商是执著追寻能成功经营自己的企业这一美国梦的英雄,但往往却得不偿失。 Although independent retailers represent the backbone of US retail, their position is declining. This is very unfortunate for those businessmen who sacrificed time, money, energy and family to create a business. An independent retailer is a hero who persistently pursues the American dream of successfully running its own business, but often outweighs the gains.
