Kesko’s reported sales grew in August
The sales of Kesko Group’s continuing operations in August 2019 totalled €963.5 million, representing a decrease of 1.0% in comparable terms. Reported sales from continuing operations grew by 1.6%."Sales grew in the grocery trade and in the building and technical trade. Sales performance was impacted by the fact that the month had one wholesale selling day less than the year before. In the car trade, the implementation of the WLTP emissions testing, uncertainties regarding car taxation and debate over the choice of motive power continued to decelerate the sales of new cars,” says Mikko
