百貨公司是一種售賣多種貨品的大型零售商店。不同於超級市場，百貨公司通常會售賣較昂貴和大型的商品，例如家私、電器等，亦會售賣服裝、化妝品、玩具、廚具及運動用品等。有些百貨公司的收銀處設置得較為分散，另一些則會像超級市場一樣集中在出入口。

A department store is a retail establishment which specializes in selling a wide range of products without a single predominant merchandise line. Department stores usually sell products including apparel, furniture, appliances, electronics, and additionally select other lines of products such as paint, hardware, toiletries, cosmetics, photographic equipment, jewellery, toys, and sporting goods. Certain department stores are further classified as discount department stores. Discount department stores commonly have central customer checkout areas, generally in the front area of the store. Department stores are usually part of a retail chain of many stores situated around a country or several countries.

商場，又稱購物中心，是商業中心區必有的建築物，是結合購物、休閒、文化、娛樂、飲食、展示及資訊等設施於一體的商業設施。商場中有大小不同的商店、餐廳、娛樂場所、行人通道、電梯、升降機、行人天橋及消費者和遊客。

A shopping mall or shopping centre is a building or set of buildings that contain a variety of retail units, with interconnecting walkways enabling visitors to easily walk from unit to unit.
Strip malls have developed since the 1920s, corresponding to the rise of suburban living in the United States after World War II. As such, the strip mall development has been the subject of the same criticisms leveled against suburbanisation and suburban sprawl in general. In the United Kingdom these are called retail parks or out-of-town shopping centres or precincts.
