Footfall sees Black Friday lull amid cost of living crisis
Springboard said that the modest rise indicates ‘reservation’ in consumers and a lull in footfall prior to Black Friday, despite a range of promotions already being active
Footfall across UK retail destinations rose by a modest +1.6% last week from the week before, driven mostly by high streets (+1.7%) and shopping centres (+2.4%) whilst footfall in retail parks remained largely level from the week before (+0.5%), according to Springboard.
