Q4 2020 Retail Market Report
Quarterly Reports
Summary
As 2020 falls into the rearview, we can dive into the numbers of the retail market during the last four quarters and see how Albuquerque has handled the pandemic.
No one was able to foresee what would happen to the real estate market nationally or locally. Retail real estate was hit the hardest with most New Mexico businesses forced to close completely for a period of time or significantly reduce capacity. The industries most affected in New Mexico have been entertainment, sit-down restaurants, and tourism/hospitality.
This trend is seen across the United States. The categories least affected by the pandemic include grocers, hardware stores, and other essential needs retailers. Many drive-thru restaurants saw sales increase by pulling business from sit-down concepts.
