Norwegians Shopping In Sweden More, Spending Less In Home Market
Norwegian consumers are crossing the border into Sweden more often, while also spending less in domestic supermarkets, new data has found.
The data, from Statistics Norway, found that in the period running from the third quarter of last year to the second quarter of 2019, around NOK 1.6 billion in cross-border trade was recorded.
That’s a 9.6% increase on the corresponding period the previous year (NOK 15.1 billion).
In addition, the number of day trips over the border has also increased, to 9.23 million, up from 8.1 billion the previous year, an increase of 13.9%.
