The agency notes: "The quantity of goods bought (volume) in retail sales is estimated to have fallen by 0.6% in the three months to July 2025 when compared with the three months to April 2025. This decline follows four months of consecutive three-month on three-month growth."
"Non-store retailers and clothing stores sales volumes grew strongly in July 2025, which retailers attributed to new products, good weather, and an increase resulting from the UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 tournament."
Overall, this report won't change anything for the BoE as their focus switched more towards inflation which is where they are missing by a lot.
