Romanian retail grew over six percent
In the first eight months the Romanian retail sales grew by 6.2 percent, compared to the same period of the last year – the Romanian national statistical institute announced on Friday.
The increase is mainly due to the sales of food, beverages and tobacco products, which increased by almost 15 percent. Fuel sales expanded by 5.4 percent in the period under review, while the non-food sales were stagnating.
In August, the volume of retail sales increased by 9.6 percent, compared to last year's eighth month. (MTI)
