Roy Morgan Research projects strong post-Christmas sales across Australia, with the exception of Victoria:
Roy Morgan’s annual post-Christmas retail sales forecasts conducted in conjunction with the Australian Retailers Association (ARA) project Australians are set to spend $19.46 billion across retail stores during the post-Christmas trading period, an increase of 3.9% from a year ago.
The post-Christmas sales are expected to have a slightly higher rate of growth than the pre-Christmas sales with the Australian economy continuing to recover and indicators such as the ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence continuing to increase – now at 109.3, up 19.1pts (+21.2%) since August 29/30, 2020.
