Workshops were based in the home in Britain. Products were made and sold from the same premises in which you lived. In the US, products were imported and stored to be resold. That's why the Brits have shops and the Americans have stores.

Here's an example of a late 19th/early 20th century shop in the Black Country Living Museum.
