Value sales of general merchandise stores in Germany rebounded in 2023, following the previous year’s decline. The latter was driven by department stores, with the channel’s sales falling by double digits due to temporary store closures. Although the overall rebound was largely driven by the solid performance of variety stores in 2023, which accounts for the majority of outlets and value sales within general merchandise stores, it was also given a temporary boost by high inflation rates.
