2025年5月，英国零售额同比仅增长0.6%，较4月份的6.8%大幅下降，远低于市场预期的2.7%的增长。这标志着六个月来最慢的增长速度，因为物价上涨和每月账单增加继续给家庭预算带来压力。英国零售商协会首席执行官海伦·迪金森表示，消费者已经“控制了支出”，特别是在时尚和全价高价购买等非食品项目上，理由是消费者信心下降。尽管整体经济放缓，但食品销售保持稳定，这得益于几场大型足球锦标赛的兴奋。游戏也表现强劲，这得益于热门新游戏的发布。毕马威英国消费者、零售和休闲主管Linda Ellett指出，不合时宜的晴朗天气可能促使消费者比平时更早地进行季节性购买，进一步抑制了5月份的销售增长。
UK retail sales grew by just 0.6% on a like-for-like basis in May 2025, a steep decline from the 6.8% increase recorded in April and well below market expectations of a 2.7% rise. This marks the slowest pace of growth in six months, as rising prices and mounting monthly bills continued to strain household budgets. Helen Dickinson, Chief Executive of the BRC, said consumers had “put the brakes on spending,” particularly on non-food items such as fashion and full-priced, big-ticket purchases, citing a decline in consumer confidence. Despite the overall slowdown, food sales remained steady, buoyed by the excitement around several major football tournaments. Gaming also performed strongly, driven by the release of popular new titles. Linda Ellett, UK head of consumer, retail and leisure at KPMG, noted that unseasonably sunny weather may have prompted consumers to make seasonal purchases earlier than usual, further dampening sales growth in May.
