A slow year in 2023 was a significant challenge for retail in Chile. Elevated inflation and steady price rises continued to impact the retail industry, leading to a steep drop in demand from consumers, who looked to postpone purchases as much as possible, increasingly looking at the second-hand and refurbished markets, as well as to informal sellers of products in all categories, as they attempted to find options that were better adapted to their budgets.
