Table explanation


This table presents information about developments in turnover in retail trade. Turnover can be broken down into value, price and volume. The data can further be divided by a number of branches of trade according to Statistics Netherlands' Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities 2008 (SIC 2008).

The results are expressed in terms of indices with base year 2005. Changes on the same period in the previous year are also published. Value and/or price and volume data are lacking (temporarily) for some branches as the information is considered to be insufficiently reliable.

Data available from: 2000

Status of the figures
Figures on the four previous months are provisional, the remainder are definite.

Changes as of 20 March 2013:
Table has been discontinued as from 20 March 2013 and will be continued as "Retail trade; turnover change, index 2010 = 100". For more information see sections 3 and 4.

Changes as of 4 August 2010:

will no longer be published concerning the following groups:
4721 Shops for vegetables and fruit
4722 Shops for meat and meat products
4764 Shops for sports and camping goods
