Research: When Are Retail Reports Published?

 

EDITED Research consists of a mix of regular and ad hoc reporting. The tables below outline the regular Retail Reports published every day, month, week, quarter, or season and how to find them within the Retail Report section. 

These are not the only reports published. The majority of Trend Alert, Trend Focus, and Consumer Strategy reports are not listed below as they either report on a rapidly emerging trend or their subject matter changes on a periodical basis. 

Understanding the Calendars

Publish Frequency = whether the report will be published daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or seasonal. If there is a specific day of the week on which the report is published, this is outlined in brackets. For example, "Weekly (F)" means the report is published weekly on a Friday. 

Report Type = shows which checkbox to tick within the Retail Report dropdown navigation to find the report.
