Live-PR.com - Austria
Increasing affluence, a growing population – including a larger number of young people – and the continuing development of organised retail infrastructure are the key factors behind the forecast growth in Mexico´s retail sales... The proportion in the 20-44 age range, crucial for retail sales, is forecast to be 41.5% by the end of 2010, according to the UN Population Division. In 2005, 63.6% of Mexicans were described by the UN as economically active and this is forecast to have reached 66.3% in 2010. The trend towards urbanisation is predicted to continue, with the proportion of those living in towns and cities in 2005 estimated at 76% by the UN and forecast to have hit 77.4% in 2010.
