The latest Distributive Trades Survey from the Confederation of British Industry showed that retail sales fell in June, reversing May’s short-lived uplift.

Retail sales volumes in the year to June fell sharply, with a weighted net balance of -24. That compares to May’s balance of 8.

Sales, which were reported to be well below average for the time of year, were also forecast to continue falling in July, albeit at a notably slower rate, at -9.

Alpesh Paleja, interim deputy chief economist at the CBI, said: "Last month’s nascent recovery in sales proved to be short-lived, with retailers reporting a faster-than-anticipated decline this month.

"Unseasonably cold weather in [early] June may have played a role, but it’s notable that internet retail sales fell sharply too."

UK retail sales increased at a faster pace than expected last month, numbers on Friday showed. According to the Office for National Statistics, UK retail sales volumes surged 2.9% in May from April, topping the FXStreet cited consensus of a 1.5% rise.

Sales had declined 1.8% in April from March. April's outcome was upwardly revised from an initially-reported 2.3% decline. On May's reading, the ONS said: "Sales volumes rose across most sectors, with clothing retailers and furniture stores rebounding following poor weather in April.

More broadly, sales volumes rose by 1.0% in the three months to May 2024 when compared with the previous three months. However, they fell by 0.2% when compared with the three months to May 2023."

Year-on-year, retail sales rose 1.3% in May, defying expectations of a 0.9% decline, and improving markedly from a 2.3% slide in April.
