MONTERREY, Mexico--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fitch Ratings has published its new Mexican Retail Dashboard.
The publication explores key themes affecting issuer credit profiles for the Mexican Retail sector. Key issues to watch in the following months are increased consumer demand through cheaper consumer credit and consumer confidence stable but higher than early 2014, a result of low inflation and interest rates.
In the last few months, supermarket same store sales (SSS) have averaged low single-digit LTM growth, supported by stronger consumer confidence and constrained by competition dynamics in the industry, while department store SSS have been in the mid-single-digits, as availability of consumer credit and increased outlet penetration in smaller cities have lent support to sales.
