The ROI provides unique "comp sales results": monthly sales results compared to Last Year for 12 retail and restaurant sectors according to their NAICS category (e.g., Apparel & Accessories Stores; Furniture & Home Furnishings Stores; Motor Vehicles & Parts Dealers; Food & Beverage Stores; etc.)

Based on the data provided by the United States Department of Commerce:

1. The ROI calculates percentage changes in sales volume versus the same month the prior year. 
2. We then present these results in chart form for the trailing 6 months, revealing the trends in retail sales.
