Obuv Rossii Group of Companies announces record sales growth in December. In the period from December 1 to December 18, comparable sales in the company's stores (like-for-like) increased by 30%, compared to the same period of the 2016 year.

The main reason for the growth of comparable sales is the revival of demand. “December is the period of the traditional seasonal and New Year's sale, but in previous years we did not notice such a high growth in trade.

The increase in consumer activity is also associated with the effect of deferred demand: shoes are a product with a limited life in 1,5-2 years, and those people who saved on 2015-2016 years are gradually returning to stores. “This year was a turning point for the shoe market: it returned to growth in kind. We see that market demand is gradually recovering. In the next five years, according to forecasts of the Discovery Research Group, the market will grow by an average of 6-7% per year, ”adds Anton Titov.
