Saskatchewan has seen the highest increase in wholesale growth compared to all provinces.

The province continues to see strong results in key economic indicators with the value of wholesale trade jumping 64.8 per cent between June 2021 and June 2022.

Saskatchewan also saw significant wholesale trade growth in recent months. Between May 2022 and June 2022 the province has seen an increase of 14.9 per cent, the second highest increase among all provinces.

These numbers far exceed the national averages of month-to month and year-over-year wholesale trade growth, which were 0.1 per cent and 12.2 per cent. In June, the total value of Saskatchewan wholesale trade reached $4.2 billion.

"Saskatchewan continues to be a national leader in economic growth with these extraordinarily strong wholesale trade numbers," Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy Harrison said. "Our government's focus on boosting trade, increasing exports and strengthening Saskatchewan's international relationships is creating opportunities and jobs for the people of our province."
