Retail Survey (Executive Summary), 2022Q2

Last updated: Jun 28 2022 12:24PM

Despite increased interest rates and high inflation putting pressure on household disposable income, confidence among retailers remained at the same level as in the first quarter. Lower disposable income may, however, take longer to reflect in the purchases of essential goods. The BER’s Retail Survey suggests that sales volumes of non-durable and semi-durable goods increased in the second quarter, continuing the trend towards spending on goods associated with returning to the office and leisure activities. Confidence among wholesalers also remained largely unchanged since the previous quarter. Although vehicle sales were strong in the first quarter, substantial stock shortages suggest a bleak outlook for the motor industry.
