Retail sales at constant prices in October 2019 increased by 4.6 percent in annual terms, and by 7.0 percent in monthly terms, the Central Statistical Office (GUS) reported. Retail sales at current prices increased 5.4 percent y/y in the same perspective.
The consensus about constant prices in October by PAP Biznes pointed to 4.1 percent of an increase y/y and 6.7 percent m/m. At current prices, economists surveyed by PAP Biznes expected an increase of 5.0 percent y/y. Slight acceleration of sales growth in October is primarily reflected in the dynamics of food sales, as Bank Pekao estimates.
