September Retail Industry Insights

Consumers still seem to be opening their wallets despite inflation and threats of a recession. Overall retail sales were flat in July compared with the prior month’s revised 0.8 percent increase, according to the Commerce Department. Although, a measure of spending that strips out gasoline and auto sales rose 0.7 percent in July from June, showing that shoppers maintained the ability to spend with much of their purchases happening online. 

The fact that consumers are thinking about holiday shopping may also play a role in the small increase in retail sales. Especially with more shoppers being conscious about their spending due to inflation, they may be saving up for those big purchases and special gifts for loved ones in just a few months. 

​​Consumers have been fighting to keep up with an inflationary environment that has seen prices overall increase nine percent from a year ago, close to the highest level in 40 years. Price rises have been especially pernicious in the food and energy category. Even with the July slide in energy prices, gas station receipts climbed 40 percent from a year ago. July provided some respite from inflation pressures, and the decline in fuel costs particularly allowed consumers to spend elsewhere, according to CNBC. 

As both shoppers and retailers continue to prepare for the holiday shopping season, we can expect some more changes and a slight incline of retail sales until the peak finally comes. If you are still in search of gift ideas and different products to fill your shelves, sign up for a free account at WholesaleCentral.com and shop from a plethora of quality suppliers who can deliver your merchandise on time for the busy season.
