Retailing in Norway
Report description
Retailing in Norway grew in 2012 at a slightly lower rate than in the previous year, mainly due to the economic downturn in Europe, which had an effect on spending. Retailing is generally very sensitive to economic fluctuations and the financial crisis influenced retailing in particular in 2009. However, Norwegians continued to enjoy a strong economy and high employment rates, which facilitated higher disposable income available for consumers to spend on retailing.

There is also analysis of non-store retailing: vending; homeshopping; internet retailing; direct selling, as available.
