Polish retail sales grew by 11.2% YoY in May after a 21.1% increase in April, Eurostat, the EU’s statistics agency, reported on July 6.
Month on month, retail sales went down by 0.8%, the agency also said.
Eurostat annual growth figures are work-day adjusted, while the monthly growth figures are also seasonally adjusted.
Eurostat data also include small companies, which employ fewer than 10 people – in this case, small family shops – but exclude auto sales. (The First News/Business World Magazine)
