200m² and smaller

200m² and smaller stores sold a bit more than HUF 11 billion worth of household chemicals and cosmetics in January-April 2015. If we examine the below-50m² channel separately, we can see that so-called ‘drug’ sales plunged 11 percent. In the 51-200m² channel drug sales were up 5 percent. The two channels’ market share was 11 percent from value sales. There were 13,593 such stores in the examined period – 11 percent less than a year ago. Since the Sunday closing started – many 200m² and smaller stores can stay open on Sundays – their market share dropped from 11 percent (January-April 2014) to 10 percent.
