Consumer Confidence Improves In Run-Up To Christmas
Retail NZ is celebrating a rise in consumer confidence, revealed in the latest ANZ-Roy Morgan NZ Consumer Confidence Index.
“It’s the positive news that retailers need right now, especially with the sharp lift in the proportion of households thinking it’s a good time to buy a major household item,” Retail NZ Chief Executive Carolyn Young says.
The December ANZ-Roy Morgan NZ Consumer Confidence Index shows consumer confidence hitting positive territory, rising from 99.8 to 100.2.
“We hope this will be reflected in holiday season spending, providing a boost to New Zealand’s retail sector,” Ms Young says.
