The latest data indicates a slowdown in Greece’s manufacturing sector as the S&P Global Greece Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) decreased to 52.0 in September 2025, down from 54.5 in August. Updated on October 1, 2025, the figures underscore a reduced pace of expansion in the country's manufacturing activities.
A PMI above 50 typically indicates growth, while a figure below signifies contraction. Although a reading of 52.0 still suggests that the sector is expanding, the downward shift from August’s 54.5 suggests a waning momentum in the growth of manufacturing activities.
As the world grapples with fluctuating economic climates, the latest PMI results for Greece reflect the broader challenges faced by manufacturers in the region. Analysts will closely monitor these developments to gauge their potential impact on the Greek economy, particularly in job creation and industrial output. Investors and policymakers alike will be keenly watching forthcoming economic indicators to better understand the underlying factors contributing to this change and its potential long-term effects.
