Spain’s retail sector lost momentum in June 2026, as year-on-year sales growth slowed to 0.5%, down from a revised 1.3% annual increase recorded in May 2026. The latest figures, updated on 28 July 2026, highlight a visible deceleration in consumer spending compared with the same period a year earlier.

The data are calculated on a year-over-year basis, meaning June’s 0.5% reading reflects how retail sales changed compared with June of the previous year, while May’s 1.3% figure measured the change versus May a year earlier. The step down suggests that, although retail activity in Spain is still expanding, the pace of growth has eased, signaling a more cautious consumer backdrop entering the summer period.
