    Retailers are hoping for another sales surge - to keep this season's early momentum moving

    Retailers are hoping for another sales surge - to keep this season's early momentum moving

    27 December 2025
    Shopping malls and small holiday destination stores are preparing for hoards of shoppers - with Boxing Day sales continuing this weekend.

    Retail NZ chief executive Carolyn Young says the volume of sales has been fairly steady - and not much different from last year.

    She says a lot of stores started their promotions early - which could have stolen transactions that could have come later in the month.

    Young says this can boost sales the last week of Christmas - but impact what you see at the end of December.
