Compared to 2019, sales are expected to grow 6.7%. \u201cBack to school has always been a prime season for retailers. This year, the broader reopening brings an exciting wave of optimism as children prepare for another school year, and the grown-ups in their lives approach a similar \u2018return to office\u2019 scenario,\u201d said Steve Sadove, Senior Advisor for Mastercard and Former CEO and Chairman of Saks Incorporated. \u201cThis back-to-school season will be defined by choice as online sales remain robust, brick and mortar browsing regains momentum and strong promotions help retailers compete for shoppers&#8217; wallets.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Building on the positive retail momentum seen since the start of this year, US retail jewellery sales tripled (203.4%) in May 2021 and grew 44.7% compared with May 2019, according to the Mastercard SpendingPulse monthly macroeconomic report that tracks American retail sales.
