Retail traffic in Spain expected to peak on January 2
According to an annual report by Sensormatic Solutions, consumer shopping patterns in Spain show distinct peaks during the holiday season. Contrary to common belief, the busiest shopping days do not occur in December or during Black Friday.
Data indicates that the highest volume of foot traffic in physical stores is expected on Saturday, January 2. This surge is attributed to last-minute gift shopping ahead of the Three Kings Day celebrations. The report also identifies the Monday preceding Three Kings Day as another period of significant congestion in shopping centers and urban retail locations.
