High street baker Greggs is reporting slower sales growth today after poor weather and challenging economic conditions combined to hit footfall.
The firm says like-for-like sales grew by 4.7% during the 19 weeks to May 10, compared with a rise of 6.2% during the first 10 weeks.
Chairman Derek Netherton is blaming this year’s earlier Easter and poor weather over the period for the dip during March and April.
