Mexico’s retail sector showed a slight improvement in July 2026, as the pace of decline in sales eased compared with the previous month, according to the latest data updated on 22 September 2026.
Month-over-month retail sales fell 0.1% in July, a mild contraction following a 0.2% drop in June 2026. While the sector remains in negative territory, the smaller decline suggests that consumer activity may be stabilizing after a weaker start to the summer.
On a comparative basis, the “actual” July figure reflects the change from June to July 2026, while the “previous” reading captures the change from May to June 2026. The sequential moderation in the downturn will be watched closely by analysts assessing the resilience of consumer demand in Mexico’s domestic economy.
