    Hopes some strong performances for small business, will continue

    Hopes some strong performances for small business, will continue

    30 October 2025
    The Xero Small Business Insights report shows there have been four straight months of positive sales growth across the country.

    Canterbury and Otago had the best sales growth in the quarter to September - outperforming Auckland and Wellington.

    Xero Global Economist Louise Southall says hospitality and retail have been underperforming - as they face their busy season.

    She says now is the time where everyday New Zealanders can help out smaller businesses.
