Estonia’s Retail Sales Return to Growth in June After Year-Long Decline

Estonia’s retail sector moved back into positive territory in June 2026, breaking a negative trend that had persisted for over a year. According to the latest data updated on 31 July 2026, retail sales rose 0.80% year-over-year in June, compared with a 1.10% decline recorded in May 2026.

The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, with the current reading reflecting the change in June 2026 versus June 2025, and the previous reading showing May 2026 versus May 2025. The turnaround from negative to positive growth suggests a modest but notable improvement in consumer activity, signaling a potential stabilization in domestic demand after a prolonged period of contraction in Estonia’s retail market.
