How this measure is built

Definition
The percentage change in total retail sales from the previous month.
Measure
One slice of Retail sales ( form: growth ) . Total value or volume of goods and services sold by retail enterprises directly to consumers. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
Limitations
Publishers release on different schedules, so the latest period differs by region; compare regions on the same period. Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
Verification
Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its source evidence before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
