The UK continued to battle against recession towards the end of the review period. Consequently, fears over job security, tax increases and cutbacks in government spending left consumers cautious about spending. The retail environment continued to see numerous closures in 2009. However, more value-focused retailers succeeded in growing sales despite the recession.
