Mexican retail sales at stores open at least a year will rise 1.7 percent this year after barely rising in 2013, the country's biggest retail trade body said on Tuesday.
ANTAD, which represents retailers including major supermarket chains Wal-Mart de Mexico and SORIANA , said total sales, including those from new stores, could rise by 6.1 percent in 2014.
In 2013, sales at stores open for more than a year grew 0.1 percent, widely missing the 5 percent expected by ANTAD last January.
