Footfall to UK retail destinations continues to jump around from week to week and sometimes the underlying news appears to be good while at others it highlights the ongoing gap between now and the pre-pandemic period.
That’s the slightly confusing conclusion to be drawn from the latest report by specialist tracking firm MRI Springboard.
The company said footfall across the three main retail destination types (high streets, shopping centres and retail parks) declined by 5.2% last week from the week before, when it had risen by 3.8% following a sunny half-term break.
But looking at it from a year-on-year perspective, it was up 6.3%. This was the biggest increase since Easter.
It appears that the weather is playing a big part at the moment. Footfall rose 2.5% on Saturday as shoppers made the most of the heatwave to make trips, with a rise in footfall of 4% in high streets.
Yet across the week, footfall was lower than the week before on every day between Sunday and Friday with the biggest dip being 11.2% Tuesday across all UK destinations and as much as 15.1% in shopping centres.
That said, the onset of sunny weather didn’t seem to help the usual beneficiaries, coastal towns week-on-week. They saw the largest footfall decline of 14.5%, following an average increase over the previous two weeks of 16.1%, probably due to the fact that previous weeks were boosted by school holidays. However the figures were up 12.5% year-on-year.
Meanwhile Central London dipped 3.4% on the week but rose 8.1% on the year and for regional cities those figures were -7.6% and +12.3%, respectively.
And the gap between 2025 and now? While much smaller than it has been at some points over the past three years, it remains a gap.
The difference compared to the 2025 footfall level widened to -7.2% last week from -3.4% in the previous week, and to -15.5% in shopping centres from -7.5% in the week before last.
But coastal towns were only 2.5% behind 2025 and regional cities were down just 1.1% compared to pre-pandemic. But Central London was down a heftier 14.8%.
