KSH: retail sales rose in May

The volume of retail sales increased by 5.1 percent in May, compared with a year earlier, according to the raw data and working day adjusted datas – the Central Statistical Office (KSH) announced on Thursday.

The KSH reminds, however, that the results before July, cannot be compared with last year’S datas, due to the changes in tobacco trade and the provisions as well as the cleared turnover, due to the introduction of the online cash registers.

According to the datas of the Central Statistical Office (KSH) since July 2013 the retail sales volume index increased every month. (MTI)
