Due to the spread of new coronavirus infections, the sales of the main convenience stores nationwide last month decreased by 10.6% compared to the same month last year, making it the largest decline since 2005, when comparisons were possible. A major factor is the decrease in the number of customers at stores in business districts and recreation areas due to the expansion of refraining from going out after being declared an emergency.
