Greek retail sales growth slowed in March 2026, with year-over-year expansion easing to 3.0%, down from 4.4% in February 2026. The latest figures, updated on 29 May 2026, indicate a moderation in consumer spending momentum after a stronger performance at the start of the year.
Both the current and previous readings compare each month’s activity with the same month a year earlier, highlighting a deceleration rather than a contraction in demand. While retail sales are still rising on an annual basis, the softer pace in March may signal emerging caution among consumers or the impact of broader economic headwinds on household spending in Greece.
