2026.03.1208:00:00UTC+00Czech Retail Sales Growth Accelerates Sharply to 5.0% in January 2026

Retail trade in the Czech Republic showed a marked acceleration at the start of 2026, with the working day adjusted (WDA) retail sales indicator rising to 5.00% year-over-year in January 2026. This is a significant jump from the previously recorded 1.80% year-over-year increase in December 2025.

According to the latest data, updated on 12 March 2026, the current figure compares the change in January 2026 to January 2025, while the previous reading reflected the change in December 2025 versus December 2024. The sharp improvement suggests a strengthening consumer sector, with January’s performance indicating a much faster pace of retail activity than at the end of last year.

The data will be closely watched by analysts and investors as an indicator of domestic demand dynamics in the Czech economy, particularly given the clear acceleration in year-over-year growth between December and January.
