The Dutch footwear and leather goods retail sector closed November 2025 with a solid increase in sales. According to the national statistics authority Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek (CBS), the corresponding revenues increased by 3.2 percent compared to the same month last year.
Clothing stores could not enjoy a similar increase. They recorded growth of just 0.8 percent. This means that they lagged far behind the general development of Dutch retail, which achieved an increase of 3.9 percent in November.
Online sales in the Netherlands rose by almost six percent in November. According to CBS, online shops for clothing and fashion items recorded growth of 2.4 percent.
November has been a time of discounts for several years with shopping promotion days such as Singles Day and Black Friday. Many discounts are already being offered in the run-up to these days, which can contribute to sales growth this month.
