Short-term business statistics (STS) give information on a wide range of economic activities. All STS data are index data. Additionally, annual absolute values are released for building permits indicators. Percentage changes are also available for each indicator: Infra-annual percentage changes - changes between two consecutive months or quarters - are calculated on the basis of non-adjusted data (prices) or calendar and seasonally adjusted data (volume and value indicators) and year-on-year changes - comparing a period to the same period one year ago - are calculated on the basis of non-adjusted data (prices and employment) or calendar adjusted data (volume and value indicators).

The index data are generally presented in the following forms:

• unadjusted
• calendar adjusted
• calendar and seasonally adjusted.

Depending on the EBS Regulation data are accessible as monthly, quarterly and annual data.

The STS indicators are listed below in five different sectors, reflecting the dissemination of these data in Eurostat’s online database “Eurobase”.

Based on the national data, Eurostat compiles short-term indicators for the EU and euro area. Among these, a list of indicators, called Principal European Economic Indicators (PEEIs) has been identified by key users as being of primary importance for the conduct of monetary and economic policy of the euro area. The PEEIs contributed by STS are marked with * in the text below.

Planogram Design AI Market Outlook

According to our latest research, the Planogram Design AI market size reached USD 1.08 billion in 2024, demonstrating a robust trajectory driven by the surging adoption of artificial intelligence in retail and merchandising operations. The market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 18.2% from 2025 to 2033, with the total market value expected to reach USD 5.17 billion by 2033. This growth is primarily attributed to the increasing demand for data-driven shelf planning, enhanced consumer experience, and the need for operational efficiency among retailers and consumer packaged goods (CPG) manufacturers. As per our latest research, the marketÂ’s rapid evolution is underpinned by technological advancements and the growing integration of AI-powered solutions across diverse retail environments.

One of the key growth factors propelling the Planogram Design AI market is the escalating emphasis on optimizing shelf space and product placement in brick-and-mortar stores. Retailers are continuously seeking innovative ways to maximize sales per square foot and minimize out-of-stock scenarios, and AI-driven planogram solutions provide actionable insights based on real-time data. By leveraging machine learning algorithms, these tools can analyze historical sales data, customer behavior, and seasonal trends to recommend optimal shelf layouts. This not only enhances product visibility but also improves inventory turnover rates and reduces manual intervention, resulting in significant cost savings for retailers. The ability to dynamically adjust planograms in response to evolving market trends further cements the value proposition of AI-powered solutions.

Another significant driver is the rapid digital transformation of the retail sector, particularly in response to evolving consumer expectations and the proliferation of omnichannel strategies. Retailers are increasingly investing in advanced analytics and AI technologies to bridge the gap between online and offline shopping experiences. Planogram Design AI platforms enable seamless integration with inventory management systems, point-of-sale data, and supply chain operations, facilitating a more agile and responsive merchandising process. The growing adoption of cloud-based solutions has further democratized access to sophisticated planogram tools, making them accessible to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that previously lacked the resources for such investments. This democratization is expanding the addressable market and fueling further innovation in the sector.

Moreover, the rising complexity of product assortments and the need for personalized shopping experiences are encouraging retailers and CPG manufacturers to adopt AI-driven planogram solutions. As consumer preferences become more fragmented and competition intensifies, businesses are leveraging AI to tailor shelf layouts to specific store formats, demographic profiles, and local demand patterns. This level of customization, powered by predictive analytics and real-time data feeds, not only enhances customer satisfaction but also drives incremental revenue growth. The integration of computer vision and image recognition technologies is further enabling automated compliance checks and reducing the time required for planogram execution, thereby streamlining store operations.

The advent of the AI Planogram Compliance System is revolutionizing how retailers ensure adherence to planogram guidelines. This system leverages advanced AI algorithms to automate compliance checks, significantly reducing the time and resources traditionally required for manual audits. By integrating seamlessly with existing retail systems, the AI Planogram Compliance System provides real-time insights into shelf execution, enabling retailers to quickly identify and rectify discrepancies. This not only enhances operational efficiency but also ensures that product displays are consistently aligned with strategic merchandising objectives. As retailers continue to prioritize precision in shelf management, the adoption of AI-driven compliance solutions is expected to grow, further cementing their role in modern retail operations.

From a regional perspective, North America continues to dominate the Planogram Design AI market, accounting for the largest share in 2024, followed closely by Europe and Asia Pacific. The
