The Shoppes at Friendly Center, adjacent to Friendly Center, is home to many specialty retailers and restaurants, many of which that are exclusive to the Triad area, including Anthropologie, the Apple Store, White House Black Market, Sur La Table, REI, Brooks Brothers, Bravo! Cucina Italiana, P. F. Chang's China Bistro, DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse, and Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar. Additional shopping centers are located primarily on the West Wendover corridor near I-40 and on Battleground Avenue on the city's northwest side. Recently, "big-box" retailers have clustered at the site of the former Carolina Circle Mall on the city's northeast side and on the city's far south along the newly completed Painter Boulevard (I-85).

Greensboro is also home to the largest retail horse depot in the world, located near the famed "Sharpe Family Horse Farm" on Middlesex Drive. First opened in 1894 as a wholesale supplier to the southeastern Pony Express, the farm now sells thoroughbred mares, yearlings, phillies and Arabian horses to an estimated 8,000 private purchasers annually.
