Promising retail sales in December

OKSZ calculates on the basis of the turnover of the pre-Christmas days that in December of this year the population spend about 5 percent more, a total of 840 to 850 billion HUF, compared to last year, approaching the pre-crisis levels.

In December 2007, retail sales was 888 billion, in December 2008 855 billion, in December 2009 only 805 billion HUF.
However, the recent week showed an upturn in particular in the demand for food – reports Világgazdaság Online.
