AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Retail Pulse: UK retail sales rose 1.5% year on year in October, but non-food spending was flat as shoppers held off on big purchases ahead of Black Friday. Grocery and online sales provided some support, while consumers are still focusing on essentials. Clearer Online Prices: The CMA says retailers must include unavoidable delivery charges in advertised prices, warning that breaches could lead to fines and compensation orders. Delivery Shift: Amazon has won UK regulatory approval to expand drone deliveries, potentially bringing the service to more customers. Store Changes: Asda has announced an immediate checkout change across its UK stores under its new chief executive. Black Friday Watch: Weekend sales are forecast to approach £10bn, but cost pressures are steering many shoppers towards deals on necessities rather than impulse buys.
