凱捷英國公司(Capgemini U.K.Plc)稱，因二戰(zhàn)以來最嚴(yán)重的衰退導(dǎo)致消費(fèi)者消費(fèi)的不景氣，使英國網(wǎng)上服裝銷售在9年來首次下降。凱捷在報(bào)告中指出，與上個(gè)月相比，基于網(wǎng)絡(luò)的服裝銷售額下跌2%。此月度下滑是自2000年有此項(xiàng)記錄以來的第一次。

Webster Chris Webster said in a statement that the growth of online clothing revenue began to decline in the middle of 2008, and this year the rate of decline has accelerated.

Consumers spend more on Mother's day and prepare for Easter.

According to a survey of 50 retailers, the purchase of online beer and wine increased by 10% due to the warming of the weather and the increase of tax revenue by 2%.

Webster said that the increase in food and energy prices has made families that have less after tax income to cut spending.

Total retail sales rose by 14% over the same period last year, and the average cost of each visit rose by 10 pounds ($15.23) to 131.76 pounds.

Webster said clothing sales are still a healthy industry and are expected to continue to grow.
