Retail trade
The retail trade index measures the monthly evolution of the turnover at current prices of enterprises with retail sale outlets. With effect from January 2013 the indices will be calculated with reference to the base year 2010 using the Ateco 2007 classification (Italian edition of Nace Rev. 2).
In January 2013 the seasonally adjusted retail trade index decreased by 0.5% with respect to December 2012 (-0.6% for food goods and -0.4% for non food goods). The average of the last three months compared to the previous three months decreased by 0.8%.
The unadjusted index fell by 3.0% with respect to January 2012.
