FX.co ★ Singapore Retail Sales Growth Accelerates to 4.0% in June, Up from 2.9% in May

Singapore’s retail sector strengthened in June 2026, with year-over-year sales growth rising to 4.0%, up from 2.9% in May 2026, according to the latest official data updated on 5 August 2026.

The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, with the June reading reflecting how retail sales changed compared to June a year earlier, while the May figure shows the change versus May a year earlier. The acceleration suggests an improving consumer spending environment midway through 2026, as retailers benefit from stronger demand than earlier in the year.

While the data release does not break down performance by category, the continued upward trend in the headline retail sales figure may indicate resilient household consumption, supporting Singapore’s broader economic momentum in the second quarter of 2026.
