Latvia’s industrial sector returned to growth in March 2026, with production rising 1.3% month-over-month, reversing the previous month’s decline. The latest figures, updated on 7 May 2026, mark a notable improvement after industrial output fell 0.6% in February 2026 compared with January.
The data are measured on a month-over-month basis, meaning March’s 1.3% increase reflects the change in industrial production relative to February, while the earlier -0.6% reading captured February’s performance versus January. The swing from contraction to expansion suggests a stabilizing momentum in Latvia’s industrial activity as the second quarter begins.
