Continued recovery positively impacts retail sales

Ireland continued to see strong economic growth in 2018, with unemployment falling and consumer confidence remaining relatively strong. Two extreme weather events that had not been seen in Ireland for several years allowed for increases in consumer spending.

Retailers concerned for future as Brexit is on the horizon

While retail sales in Ireland grew substantially over the past year, there has been a lot of discussion over what the retail landscape will look like post Brexit. Since the vote in June 2016, sterling devaluation has had an impact on retail, with many consumers shopping online on UK websites in sterling instead of euros to get the most value for money on products such as apparel and footwear.

Internet and mobile internet retailing driving growth

Internet retailing is driving value sales growth, with mobile internet retailing growing at an even faster rate. Internet retailing has been enhanced by the level of affiliate link marketing via social influencers, who receive commission for providing a link to their followers for a certain product or retailer website.

Grocery retailing in Ireland remains highly competitive

The grocery retail channel in Ireland is more competitive than ever before. Main players like Musgraves, Tesco, Dunnes Stores, Aldi and Lidl are constantly battling with one another to gain sales.

Retailing expected to perform well, but challenges and changes anticipated

Retailing is forecast to grow strongly over the next five years. Growth will depend on several factors, including the impact of Brexit.
