The primary contributor to the decline was falling sales in grocery stores, whose turnover dropped by 4 per cent year-on-year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>Johanna Linda Pihlak<\/b>, an analyst at Statistics Estonia, explained that grocery stores saw the largest negative impact. However, the turnover of stores selling manufactured goods showed a positive trend, increasing by 2 per cent over the same period.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Among manufactured goods retailers, specialised stores experienced significant growth, with a 15 per cent rise in turnover. These stores primarily sell computers, books, sports equipment, and toys. Meanwhile, stores selling goods via mail order or online saw a 10 per cent increase in turnover. On the other hand, some sectors experienced a decline, with stores selling household goods, hardware, and building materials seeing a 6 per cent drop, while turnover in second-hand goods stores and non-store retail fell by 3 per cent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">In comparison to October 2024, the turnover of retail enterprises decreased by 1 per cent, though seasonally adjusted data showed turnover remained stable.
