The Retail Sales m/m indicator reflects a change in the retail sales in South Africa, in the reported month compared to the previous one. It reflects the change in actual value including VAT. The indicator is calculated based on the monthly survey conducted by Statistics South Africa among nearly 3,000 companies registered as VAT payers.
Retail Sales growth indicates an increase in consumer activity and can have a positive impact on ZAR quotes.
