It has been a disappointing week in France for FMCG sales, according to statistics just published by lsa.fr.
The results of the most recent exclusive LSA-Nielsen assessment show a shrinking in the market during the seven days ending Sunday 15 March.
This follows a stretch which saw high sales volumes in early March in supermarkets, hypermarkets and hard discount stores across the country.
The fall was 0.7 per cent, both in terms of value and volumes. The sales of sweet goods and non-dairy, chilled products did not suffer during the period in question.
The statistics are computed on a year-on-year basis.
