National Retail Federation

TRADE ORGANIZATION

"The National Retail Federation is the world's largest retail trade association, with membership that comprises all retail formats and channels of distribution including department, specialty, discount, catalog, Internet, independent stores, chain restaurants, drug stores and grocery stores as well as the industry's key trading partners of retail goods and services."

Originally known as the National Retail Dry Goods Association, this is the group that convinced President Franklin D. Roosevelt to change Thanksgiving from the last Thursday of November to the month's fourth Thursday, to avoid years with a shortened Christmas shopping season.
