Commentary from Brandon Thurber (VP, Data Sales & Client Success at NRS)

"August was a good month for independent retailers, with very strong year over year and sequential increases in same store sales. Growth was fueled by more frequent shopping trips - transactions rose 2.6% - and larger baskets per trip – as unit sales climbed more rapidly at 4.3%.

“Average prices paid for the top 500 items sold across our network, which is our measure of inflation, increased 3% compared to August of last year, the highest rate of increase since last November.

“Consumers are turning to local independents not just for convenience but as a destination for key categories like Cigarettes, Prepared Cocktails, and Beer, the latter showing the strongest month-over-month momentum.”
