Retail sales increase to highest since July 2022
The Guardian
|October 25, 2025
Sales at British retailers rose unexpectedly last month to their highest level since July 2022, according to official figures, boosted by tech purchases as the iPhone 17 was released as well as strong online demand for gold.
Data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) shows that retail sales volumes rose by 0.5% in September, the fourth consecutive monthly increase, confounding economists’ forecasts of a 0.2% monthly drop.
Sales of products at computer and telecommunication retailers grew strongly last month. Online sales climbed for the eighth consecutive month, helped by internet jewellers who reported strong demand for gold as the safe haven commodity enjoyed its biggest rally since the 1970s amid global uncertainty.
