Text Between 1st and 3rd January sales in each of the three complexes fell back by approximately fifty per cent. There was however a marked improvement on the 4th for ThamesMart where the figure rose to 300 000 euros. This advance was followed by five days of quite wild fluctuations with takings falling to just over 250 000 euros on the 9lh. ThamesMart however still maintained its lead finishing the period at 350 000 euros. The sales figures for both TewkesMart and FineMart were also volatile with the former rising from monthly sales of 150 000 euros to about 275 000 at the end of the twelve days. FineMart by contrast ended only 50 000 up at 150 000 on 12th January. The pie chart shows the sales figures in percentage terms for TewkesMart over the period. Electrical Goods Computer Hardware and Toys made up the bulk of the sales with each accounting for 20 per cent of the total. Food represented 13 and Clothes came in at 10 per cent. As for Others they represented 17 per cent of the total. Clearly the trends for the daily sales in all three shopping complexes were upward over the twelve-day period albeit by varying degrees.
