The term doesn't seem limited to the idea of a reseller. For instance, the Apple store search function for 製品取扱店, while translated on the website as "reseller," only reveals official Apple store locations. (http://www.apple.com/jp/buy/locator/) Perhaps the term means something broader, like "official retailer" or "authorized retailer," with "reseller" being one acceptable translation depending on the context.

Correction: Unofficial Apple stores are also listed, but "reseller" implies that an official Apple store would not be included, so I still think it's a bit too narrow.

Also, I'd note that "店舗" implies a physical location, so I'd make sure to keep that clear if there are references to online sellers in the original text. |
