Mexico’s retail sales rose 1.8% year over year in July 2026, easing from a 2.7% increase in June.

Growth was led by sales of healthcare articles (8.7%), followed by household appliances, computers, home décor and second-hand goods (8.4%), hardware, paint and glass products (6.6%), stationery, recreational goods and other personal-use items (3.1%), and textiles, accessories, footwear and clothing (2%).

These gains more than offset declines in sales through online channels, printed catalogs, TV and similar platforms (-7.7%), breaking a multi-month streak of gains, as well as grocery items, food, beverages, ice and tobacco (-2.3%) and supermarkets and department stores (-0.6%).

On a seasonally adjusted monthly basis, retail sales edged 0.1% lower, following a 0.2% decline in June.
