Highlights:
-Retail expenditure has been buoyant across all sectors in Slovakia on the back of strong macroeconomic growth and real wage growth, which has boosted disposable incomes in the country. Retail development really kicked off at the turn of the century with the entry of Europe's largest retailers including Tesco, Rewe, Kesa Electricals and IKEA.
