Spain Retail Sales YoY
Spain's retail sales year-over-year slowed to 4.5% in August 2025, down from 4.7% in July 2025. This marks the lowest growth in four months. Weaker food turnover and a sales deterioration in large chain stores in July contributed to this slowdown. Consumer confidence rose in August but inflation remained at 2.7%, showing continued price pressures. Spain's record low retail sales year-over-year was -31.3% in April 2020 and record high was 40.7% in April 2021.
