Modest sales wins for Australian jewellery retailers

The latest analysis of sales performance in Australian independent jewellery stores from Retail Edge has uncovered minor positive trends.

February’s data showed comparative overall sales dollar performance finished in positive territory with an increase of 1.6 per cent compared with 2022.

It was a similar story in March, with comparative overall sales dollar performance narrowly improving by 0.4 per cent on a one-year comparison.

The increase was more profound compared with 2022, improving 1.4 per cent.
