retail
Used as a descriptive word (attributively) before a noun to create a connection to retail, that is, the sale of goods directly to end consumers.

The word 'Einzelhandel' (retail) consists of 'einzel' (single, individual) and 'Handel' (commerce, trade). So it describes trade with individual customers, not with other companies.

Although it is used like an adjective, 'Einzelhandel' (retail) is a noun. As the first part of a compound noun, it is not declined. So it is 'der Einzelhandel-Sektor' (the retail sector), not 'der Einzelhandele Sektor'.

retailer
'Einzelhandel' and 'Einzelhändler' both belong to the sale of goods directly to customers. The difference is: 'Einzelhandel' means the sector or type of trade, often as a description before another noun, for example in 'Einzelhandel-Unternehmen' (retail company) or 'Einzelhandel-Geschäft' (retail shop). 'Einzelhändler', on the other hand, means a person or company that sells goods to end customers itself. The words can be confused because both have to do with the same business sector. In practice: if you are talking about the sector, 'Einzelhandel' fits. If you are talking about the seller or the shop as an actor, 'Einzelhändler' fits.
