Retail sales fell 10.9 percent in April in the Czech Republic,
The decline, which can be explained by measures against the coronavirus pandemic, affected all businesses.
At the same time, the turnover of online stores and parcel services increased by 47.5 percent, the highest growth in the last decade and a half.
The statistical office also drew attention to the fact that, in view of the emergency measures, it cannot be ruled out that the April data may change significantly later. (Kokes János, MTI)
