Halfords sales go flat: Autocentres still supporting group, but tyre sales down

,

Halfords Group’s like-for-like sales during the first six months of 2025 were flat (-0.1%). Those figures compare with a strong period the year before where first-half 2024 like-for-like sales grew 8.3 per cent. Writing in a trading update for the 26 weeks to 27 September 2024 and published 22 October 2024, essentially the company’s first-half 2025 figures, executives shared how their “controlling the controllables” plan is on-track. However, financial analysts noted that “consumers are still cautious” and that Halfords’ group’s in-line results are due to cost-savings rather than revenue growth.
