November's Wholesale Trade Highest Ever for Saskatchewan

Released on January 21, 2014

Saskatchewan’s growth in wholesale activity for November 2013 was the highest percentage growth in Canada and was also the highest record of trade value for the month of November in Saskatchewan’s history.

Saskatchewan ranked number one in month-to-month percentage change among the provinces on a seasonally-adjusted basis as wholesale trade increased by 1.7 per cent in November 2013, compared to October 2013, to more than $2 billion.


“Saskatchewan’s economy benefits from vigourous performance in a variety of sectors, and dynamic wholesale trade growth is just one of the signposts of this activity,”  Economy Minister Bill Boyd said.  “It reflects positively on our province and on an economy that is thriving and benefitting our people and businesses.”

Year-over-year, November 2013 wholesale trade increased by 16.8 per cent (seasonally-adjusted) compared to November 2012, which ranks Saskatchewan first in percentage growth among the provinces for this category.
