In a survey conducted by RIA News, it was indicated that consumer spending in the region grew by a staggering 6.5%. Moreover, the region ranked 42nd among all Russian regions in terms of consumer demand growth for the year.
On a national level, consumer demand saw a rise of 6.4%. Retail businesses were the primary driver of this growth, with sales increasing by 7.2%. Interestingly, the food sector showed an even higher growth rate of 9%, but its share in overall consumer spending is relatively small, accounting for about 4.5%.
According to the analysts, this increase in consumer spending can be attributed to several factors:
- Growing wages: Higher salaries in the region have lined the pockets of consumers, empowering them to spend more.
- Credit activity: The rising use of credit cards and loans has provided consumers with additional financial resources, fueling their spending habits.
- Price hikes: Inflation has been a significant factor, causing the cost of goods and services to rise, forcing consumers to dig deeper into their pockets.
On average, Russians spend around 43.5 thousand rubles per month, per person. This figure has witnessed a 17% increase since 2023. Breaking it down, 31.7 thousand rubles are spent on goods, 9.8 thousand rubles on services, and about 2 thousand rubles on meals eaten outside the home.
As for Krasnoyarsk Krai, its average monthly consumer spending per capita stands at 37.2 thousand rubles. However, there's limited data available to provide insights into the specific factors driving this spending trend in the region.
