Table explanation


This table presents information about four-weekly developments in turnover
in supermarkets. As financial accounts of supermarkets are often
based on four-week periods, there is much demand for data about
developments in these periods. For this reason Statistics Netherlands
publishes four-weekly figures in addition to monthly developments.

The results are expressed in terms of indices with base year 2008.
The table also contains changes on the same period in the previous year and turnover values.

Data available from: 2004 - 2010

Status of the figures
All figures are definite.

Changes as of 18 October 2012:
This table contains figures only up to week 49 – 52 2010. The survey on which the results are based has been ended at the beginning of 2011. No new table of four-weekly data will be published. Turnover developments on a monthly basis will be remaining available. The data can be found in the table ‘Retail trade; turnover development, SIC 2008’, see paragraph 3.
