The retail sector in Guatemala continued to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic in 2022, although at a slower pace than in 2021. Despite this, it still grew at a rate higher than inflation. The buoyancy of the retail sector was largely driven by high-income shoppers, as e-commerce and jewellery and watch specialists saw significant growth. However, department stores and variety stores that appeal to lower-income shoppers in urban areas also performed well.
