The two lines are estate takings for each complete month this year and the same months a year earlier. The selected month stays separate above while it is still running.
Share of each shop’s takings this month so far, including VAT. The estate row is the takings-weighted average of the three shops. Tobacco and vapes, alcohol, chilled and the rest sit in all other departments.
Each shop is measured against its own average month across the eight complete months this year, set to 100, so their shapes can be compared. The lines stop at August 2026, the last complete month. September is still running and stays in the tiles above. The lines do not show which shop is bigger or their relative takings.
