What's in the bulletin?
- The quantity of goods bought (volume) in retail sales is estimated to have risen by 0.6% in Quarter 2 (Apr to June) 2026 compared with Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2026. Non-store retailers' sales volumes rose, which was reported to be caused by a combination of warm weather and sales promotions over May and June 2026. Non-food stores' sales volumes grew in Quarter 2, with increasing sales in both computer and telecoms retailers, and department stores.
- Retail sales volumes are estimated to have risen by 1.0% in June 2026. This followed a rise of 1.2% in May 2026 (unrevised from our previous bulletin), and a fall of 0.7% in April 2026 (revised up from a 1.0% fall in our previous bulletin). Retailers suggested that sales promotions and the warm weather increased sales volumes for non-store and clothing retailers.
