About

Who We Are

The Oklahoma Retail Merchants Association (OKRetail) represents the retail industry of the State of Oklahoma as a strong advocate in government and assists its members in achieving the highest levels of profitability and positive recognition.

Formed in 2015, the Oklahoma Retail Merchants Association is driven to help members of the retail industry succeed thereby driving economic development and security in communities across the state. In January 2016, the Congressional Quarterly listed Oklahoma Retail Merchants Association in their annual Top 10 State Legislative Trends to Watch.  Rightly so, because during the 2016 legislative session, ORMA was instrumental in the passage of the Oklahoma Retail Protection Act, which led to the collection of sales tax by online giant, Amazon.com. 

Since then, OKRetail has become the top advocacy agency for Oklahoma retailers of all sizes. From independent shopkeepers to shopping center anchors, OKRetail fights for retail-centered policy at all levels of government. OKRetail members also benefit from our team's expertise on media relations, social media, and other excellent support programs such as a retailers-only 401k program.
