In September 2025, the Philippines' industrial sector has shown a slight improvement with a year-over-year growth in industrial production reaching 2.4%. This marks a modest increase over August 2025, when the industrial production growth stood at 2.0%, as per the figures released on November 7, 2025.
The increase is indicative of resilience in the Philippine industrial economy amidst various global and local economic challenges. While the 0.4% rise within a month may seem minor, it reflects steady progress following a comparative analysis with the same period the previous year, showcasing an encouraging trend in the industrial sector’s expansion.
The updated figures provide critical insights for investors and policymakers about the ongoing dynamics in the nation’s manufacturing and production domains. It remains essential to monitor these shifts closely, as continued growth will depend significantly on both domestic and global economic conditions going forward.
