Where in Latin America do people spend most on sports clothing?
27/08/2014
Chile came top of the table, with consumers there spending an average of $72.80 on sports clothing in 2013. This compared to Argentina with $65.90 and Brazil with $55.10.
In Mexico, people spent an average of $38.30 on sports clothing in 2013, followed by Venezuela with $31.20.
Colombia was a distant sixth with an average spend of $17.10.
Commentators have suggested that Chile’s relatively lax policy on import duties and the growing popularity of visiting shopping malls as a leisure activity there are among the factors that explain its position as Latin America’s biggest per capita spender.
