In Romania, according to raw data, the volume of retail sales increased by 4.1 percent in the first quarter compared to the same period last year, the Romanian National Statistics Institute said.

Seasonally and calendar-adjusted, the increase was 0.8 percent. The increase in raw data is mainly due to non-food products, of which 11.2 percent more were sold.
