Non-food growth improves. - Nonetheless, clothing & footwear and health & beauty remain the only non-food sectors experiencing growth. - … driven by inflation, with the return of VAT to 17.5%, the weakness of sterling and rising cotton prices.
Home related sectors continue to struggle. - The housing market remains stagnant and is showing no imminent signs of meaningful uplift. - Weakening consumer confidence, high unemployment and squeezed disposable income is further impacting discretionary demand.
