If merchant could be replaced with seller, as in "person who's selling something", the best translations would be vendedor or lojista. Keep in mind vendedor is a gendered word that could pose an issue to your translation.

If it's supposed to mean shop manager, as in "person who can make decisions about the shop", then comerciante would be preferable.

  • Yeah, it can't be replaced because its dealing with online retailers, web shop owners and all types of merchants.

  • @Hugo definitely comerciante, then. The other ones imply the individual is not the one responsible for the store. I'll edit it to clarify.

    "comerciante" is what came to mind first.
