继上个月下降2.5%之后,斯洛伐克的零售额在2025年4月同比下降0.4%。这标志着零售活动连续第三个月收缩,尽管这是该序列中跌幅最小的一个月。跌幅放缓主要是由于摊位和市场销售额下降减少(-7.1%,而3月份为-16.9%),以及非专业商店销售额反弹,在3月份下降4.5%后,非专业商店的销售额增长了7.9%。然而,非商店零售(-4.0%对-3.2%)、文化和娱乐用品(-23.7%对-18.6%)、食品、饮料和烟草(-10.9%对-9.8%)以及ICT设备(-6.4%对16.7%)的销售额继续下降。与此同时,汽车燃料的销售增长速度较慢,仅增长0.5%,而3月份为3.2%。按月计算,4月份零售活动增长了1.5%,从3月份的1.0%下降中反弹。
Retail sales in Slovakia fell by 0.4% year-on-year in April 2025, following a 2.5% decline in the previous month. This marked the third consecutive month of contraction in retail activity, though it was the smallest decline in the sequence. The softer drop was mainly due to a reduced fall in sales via stalls and markets (-7.1% vs -16.9% in March) and a rebound in sales at non-specialized stores, which rose 7.9% after a 4.5% decline in March. However, sales continued to decline in several categories non-store retailing (-4.0% vs -3.2%), cultural and recreational goods (-23.7% vs -18.6%), food, beverages, and tobacco (-10.9% vs -9.8%), and ICT equipment (-6.4% vs 16.7%). Meanwhile, sales of automotive fuel grew at a slower pace, rising just 0.5% compared to 3.2% in March. On a monthly basis, retail activity increased by 1.5% in April, rebounding from a 1.0% decline in March.
