Colombia’s retail sector posted a stronger performance in March 2026, with sales rising 13.4% year-on-year, up from a 10.9% annual increase recorded in February 2026. The data, updated on 15 May 2026, indicate a solid acceleration in consumer spending on a year-over-year basis.
Both the current and previous figures compare monthly results with the same month a year earlier, highlighting an improving trend in annual retail growth as the first quarter of 2026 progresses. The March reading suggests that Colombian retailers are seeing increasingly robust demand compared with the same period last year, extending the positive momentum observed in February.
