The Coronation bank holiday weekend saw consumers in Scotland increased their spending more than any other UK nation or region.
Business reported a 10% rise in trading activity over the bank holiday, compared to the previous week.
Bank of Scotland data showed that the additional May holiday for the King’s Coronation increased Scottish spending by a greater amount than the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee four-day weekend last year, which drove a 3% increase in purchases across firms.
