Hi, 

I would like to request for sales data aggregated on a municipality and monthly level from the BIR. This data will be used to study the impact of COVID-19 and our monetary and health policies on the amount of consumer spending across different areas of the country. 

We will use this data to track the trend of spending and consumer behavior within the country and the differences between the impacts of the pandemic in different areas in the Philippines.
