UK Shop Price Growth Holds Steady at 1.2% Year-on-Year in June

UK shop prices rose by 1.2% year-on-year in June, unchanged from the previous reading, according to the latest BRC Shop Price Index data released on 29 June 2026. The indicator shows that the pace of price growth in UK retail has stabilised, with no acceleration or slowdown compared with the prior month.

The year-over-year comparison means June’s price levels are measured against the same month a year earlier, while the previous figure reflected the annual change recorded in the prior month. The steady 1.2% reading suggests that, at least for now, retail price pressures are neither intensifying nor easing, offering a degree of predictability for both retailers and consumers.
