2026.01.0505:30:00UTC+00Dutch Retail Sales Slow as Growth Tapers in November

Dutch retail sales exhibited a noticeable slowdown during November 2025, registering a growth rate of 1.9% year-over-year, according to the latest figures updated on January 5, 2026. This marks a significant drop from the 4.0% growth observed in October 2025, reflecting the ongoing challenges facing the retail sector in the Netherlands.

The November figures indicate a cooling off in consumer spending compared to the previous month, when the sector appeared somewhat more robust. Analysts suggest that several factors could be at play, including shifts in consumer confidence, inflationary pressures, and changing spending habits as the holiday season approached.

Such a pronounced deceleration underscores potential concerns for policymakers and retailers, as they navigate the complexities of post-pandemic economic recovery and global supply chain disruptions. Stakeholders will be closely monitoring upcoming data releases to gauge the broader implications for the Dutch economy heading into 2026.
