After a positive month in April, the shoe store business figure again declined in May 2018 compared to the same period last year. The whole of the Dutch retail trade has turned out to be a plus, according to statistics from Statistics Netherlands
Statistics Netherlands (CBS) mapped the Dutch retail trade figures for May 2018. This shows that the Dutch retail trade sold 3.4% more than at the same time last year.
However, the shoe industry is going through a difficult period. After declines in sales in January (-5.5), February (-4.5) and March (-16.0) in 2018, the gain of 13.2% recorded in April was a boon huge. However, the joy is short-lived, as in May 2018 shoe stores turned 8.3% and volume also shrank by 3.6%.
