Blustery weather fails to blow November sales off course
|
Wet and windy weather took the edge off sales volumes for the last week in November, according to GTN Bestsellers EPoS data, but aggregates for the month are still the best in three years and Christmas Products sales are still on course for a record year.
The GTN Bestsellers Christmas Top 50 index for November is up 7.5% on last year and 2% up on the previous record year of 2013.
Also showing year on year positive movement is the Growing Media Top 50 index, up by 10.5% on 2014 levels.
Only the Garden Products Top 50 index is down year on year, by 20%, which is driven mainly by lower solar lighting sales volumes.
It’s all down to the next two weeks of Christmas activity now. We look forward to seeing many of you as we continue our visits for The Greatest Christmas Awards.
GTN Bestsellers Top 50 sales volumes compared to the same week last year...
- Garden Products - down 9%
- Christmas Products - up 47%
- Growing Media - up 24%
- All Items Index - down 5%
