Argentina’s retail sector posted a stronger performance in March 2026, with year-over-year sales rising 20.5%, up from an 18.0% annual increase recorded in February 2026.
The data, updated on 22 May 2026, show that the pace of retail sales growth has accelerated when comparing March 2026 to March 2025, versus February 2026’s comparison with the same month a year earlier. This indicates a further strengthening in consumer spending momentum on a year-over-year basis.
The improvement in March suggests a continued recovery in retail activity, with the sector expanding at a faster rate than in the previous month when measured against last year’s levels.
