In May 2022, a further increase of large-scale food retailing turnover

In May 2022, the total turnover in large-scale food retailing (including sales not in stores) kept growing (+0.8% after +0.7% in April). The in-store sales slowed down for food products (+0.7% after +1.4%), and dwindled for non-food products (−0.5% after +0.9%). Regarding the automotive fuel, the turnover bounced back in May (+2.2% after −0.9% in April) in the context of rising energy prices.

The in-store sales turnover kept increasing in supermarkets (+1.3% after +1.2%) and fell back in hypermarkets (−0.3% after +0.8%).

Increase in turnover over a year (+4.2%) due to automotive fuel sales

The turnover of the past three months (March to May 2022) in large-scale food retailing increased (+4.2%) when compared with the same period one year earlier. Admittedly, the turnover decreased both in food products (−3.4%) and non-food products (−0.6%). But it grew very strongly in the sales of automotive fuel (+55.4%), due to the rise in their prices, coupled with a base effect due to the third national lockdown implemented on April 3, 2021.

Year on year, the sales from March to May 2022 increased both in supermarkets (+3.4%) and hypermarkets (+6.0%).
