The Consumer Goods Retailing subdivision has faced an unpredictable retail landscape. Most notably, the COVID-19 pandemic has triggered vast economic uncertainties and intermittent trading restrictions. Yet, these challenging circumstances have also spurred unexpected growth. Amid travel bans and closed eateries, consumers have shifted their expenditure from hospitality and travel to retail consumer goods. This transition has helped boost our subdivision's revenue at an annualised rate of 2.2% over the past five years, reaching an anticipated $239.0 billion by 2023-24. Still, with COVID-19 restrictions now lifted and consumption patterns rebounding, a 4.7% revenue drop is expected in 2023-24. High inflation and cash rate hikes will also limit consumers' purchasing power and willingness to spend on consumer goods.Shopping around: Revenue has declined as easing restrictions increase external competition
