Hello. Please give me some feedback on my essay.

The table below gives information on consumer spending on different items in five different countries in 2002.


The chart compares the proportion of expenditure on three groups of items in five nations in the year 2002.

Overall, consumers in all five countries spent the most on food, drinks, and tobacco. On the other hand, the leisure/education category has the lowest percentages in the table.

For Turkey and Ireland, their figures for food and tobacco were noticeably higher than any of the other nations, accounting for 32.14% and 28.91% respectively. In terms of spending on leisure and education, people in Turkey used over 4% of their money on this category, also the highest among the five nations. For Italy, the largest proportion of consumer spending went on clothing and footwear, at 9%.

The figures for Spain and Sweden experienced opposite patterns in 2002. As for Spain, although people in this country spent a relatively high expenditure on food/drinks/tobacco and clothing/footwear, the figure for the other category was the lowest, at just 1.98%. The figure for leisure/education in Sweden, however, ranked second, despite its low percentage on spending on the remaining groups of items.



Also, I have one question to ask. In the sentence "For Turkey and Ireland, their figures for food and tobacco were noticeably higher than any of the other nations, accounting for 32.14% and 28.91% respectively", do I need "any of"? When can I omit these?
