Year-on-year growth in seasonally and working day adjusted retail sales in the Czech Republic slowed slightly in September 2026, with the indicator easing to 4.10% from 4.30% in August 2026.

According to the latest data, updated on 05 November 2026, the September figure reflects a comparison of retail activity with the same month a year earlier, following the same methodology used in August. While the pace of expansion has moderated, the sector remains in positive territory, indicating that consumer spending continues to grow, albeit at a slightly slower rate than in the previous month.

The previous reading for August 2026 showed a 4.30% year-on-year increase under the same working day adjusted framework, illustrating a marginal loss of momentum heading into early autumn. Investors and analysts will be watching upcoming releases to see whether this softening continues or stabilizes in the coming months.
