Published since 1995, the BRC - KPMG Retail Sales Monitor (RSM monthly report) is a report series providing a key indicator of consumer demand and the health of the wider retail industry.
A comprehensive collation of sales data from the UK's leading retailers, the RSM provides category-level figures for stores, online, including Food to Go. Within the RSM series, there is both the UK report, and the Scottish Retail Sales Monitor (SRSM).
The RSM is published at least two weeks ahead of official statistics, thus providing unparalleled and timely insight into current market conditions.
