Colombia’s retail sector recorded a strong acceleration in February 2026, with year-over-year sales rising 10.9%, up from a 7.8% increase in January 2026. The data, updated on 16 April 2026, highlight a solid pickup in consumer activity compared with the same period a year earlier.

The figures are based on year-over-year comparisons, meaning February’s 10.9% gain reflects the change versus February of the previous year, while January’s 7.8% figure measures the change compared with January a year earlier. The sharper growth in February suggests strengthening momentum in consumer demand, signaling improved conditions for Colombia’s retail and consumer-focused businesses at the start of 2026.
