Online sales dipped by 6.1%

Supermarket sales fell by 5.9 per cent in the 12 weeks to July 11th.

The Kantar figures show in the most recent 4 week period, they declined by 3.6 per cent, as Irish shoppers enjoyed warmer temperatures, renewed freedoms and the return of live sport.

Online sales dipped by 6.1% in the latest four weeks as shoppers reduced the size of their orders.

It's the second month in a row online sales are down as the covid vaccination programme continues and restrictions are eased.
